I have severe problems with this, because NFS-Locking is not working on FreeBSD-7.1 and later with HP-UX clients. See several PRs which are talking about this. Same is true f=FCr FreeBSD-6.4. So all Releases with kernel-supported NFS-Locking have problems with HP-UX clients. FreeBSD-7.0 is the last release that is working and that is therefor still productive at our site.
