 Turned out that almost everything from 3e9e0ca3 failed to compile,
until 4f97615d (fix for NFS_V4_1 undefined) resolved that, (only had
one or two still to try when I decided to use 'git visualize').  And
it was bad by 4f97615d.

 Added all the NFS v4 / 4.1 client options to my config :
3e9e0ca3 is now good, I'll start a fresh bisect between these two.

 Actually, I'd better retry 4f97515d to confirm it is still bad with
this config. [ saves this message, tests ... ].  Rude words!  If I
enable all the NFS v4 client options, 4f97615d is good.

 Looks, to me, as if something in that untested range of patches, or
in 3e9e0ca3 itself, causes the problem *if* nfs v4 is not enabled.

 I suppose I'll have to enable v4 in my configs.
