Now that I've had time to think about this and look a bit more
deeply, I can see that at one point I got a lease from my server,
but then after a random length of time the client tried to renew and
got a lease from the router. Some time after that, it failed
because iptables rejected the nfs packets because they were "not for
me".

So, not a kernel problem, and the reason I'm (now) seeing this on
4.0+ kernels is that I have not recently booted a system with an old
(3.19 or earlier) kernel and kept it running for a long time.

Thanks again, sorry to waste everybody's bandwidth.
