I can confirm the problem on feisty($ uname -r == 2.6.20-16-386), the NFS 4 shares are not being mounted, segmentation fault occurs:

Segmentation fault mount nfshost:/var/blabla /var/blabla -t nfs4 -o proto=tcp,port=2049,rsize=8192,wsize=8192

system also does not shutdown correctly.

Can someone from Ubuntu please provide workaround (rollback instructions) for each supported release (feisty, gutsy), while the bug is being worked on.
In case of Ubuntu 'Feisty' I see only one version of the package linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic in synaptic and on packages.ubuntu.com (version shown is 2.6.20-16.33) and I am not able to rollback to older version.

My understanding is that the latest version included non-critical fixes and that rolling back the kernel is a better/safer option then booting in old kernel version (2.6.20-15).
