Why do you consider this a hack? I have always felt that librpc requiring you to open separate ports for every program you register was a poor design. The RPC header contains the program number, and the RPC code is fully capable of demuxing incoming requests. So I do not think it is a hack at all.
And yes, Solaris NFSACL resides on 2049 too.
