Description:

I can't export and connect to any IPv6 NFS shares on ArchLinux. After research the stated reason is due to ArchLinux shipping an old component (portmap) for handling NFS rather than using the newer rpcbind suggested which supports both IPv4 and IPv6 with NFS.

Additional info:
* portmap 6.0-4
* nfs-utils 1.1.6-1
* kernel26 2.6.29

Steps to reproduce:
1. Export a share with NFS
2. Try to mount the NFS share with IPv6 address specified (i.e 2001:16d8:ff5a:1::1)
3. Mounting fails

This task depends upon
