Well, now it's my turn to be embarrassed :(

Rebooting the older kernel didn't change things at all, NFS still wasn't
working.

So off to the machine serving the nfs shares to reboot it (it had been up
for a good six months anyway, so a reboot wasn't necessarily a bad idea,
just to let it fsck the partitions). Once it came up I could then mount
the nfs shares without issue. 

sorry about all the whining gang, but I appreciate the attempts to help!
