2.5.44:

axboe@burns:[.]/kernel/iosched/linux-2.5 $ grep NFSD_V4 < .config
750:CONFIG_NFSD_V4=y
axboe@burns:[.]/kernel/iosched/linux-2.5 $ vi .config
axboe@burns:[.]/kernel/iosched/linux-2.5 $ grep NFSD_V4 < .config
750:CONFIG_NFSD_V4=n
axboe@burns:[.]/kernel/iosched/linux-2.5 $ grep NFSD_V4 < .config
750:# CONFIG_NFSD_V4 is not set

Bingo, perfect.
