severity 419049 important
thanks

I beg to disagree on the severity as this bug probably does not hit people
not using NFS. I wouldn't even bet it hits all people using NFS. At
least I haven't seen it yet.

Can you try using NFS v2 or v3? Do you also have quota enabled for a
local filesystem?

It definitely shouldn't. Here's the relevant code snippet:

        while ((mnt = get_next_mount())) {
                if (nfs_fstype(mnt->mnt_type)) {
                        if (!(flags & FL_ALL))
                                fprintf(stderr, "%s: Quota cannot be turned on 
on NFS filesystem\n", mnt->mnt_fsname);
                        continue;
                }
                ...

And nfs_fstype() checks for a mount types "nfs" and "nfs4". I fail to
see something that could cause an NFS timeout here.
