Jeroen Ruigrok/Asmodai once stated:

=> -rw-r--r--    1 4294967294  wheel  389120 Feb 14 23:54 pdksh.core.xclink

=this is exactly what I got when I tried to compile some things over NFS.
=The created directory and files were also like this:
=
=1 drwxr-xr-x  3 4294967294  wheel  - 512 Feb 15 21:09 aout/
=
=funny, the same value. There is something left out very fundamentally
=somewhere.

Just FYI. This number is 0xFFFFFFFE in hex... A search for this number
through the sources does not bring anything under NFS itself, though the
following may give a clue:

src/sys/coda/coda.h:
	if (fid->Vnode == 0xfffffffe || fid->Vnode == 0xffffffff)
src/sys/i386/include/apm_bios.h:
	#define APMINI_NOT32BIT         0xfffffffe
src/usr.sbin/rpc.statd/file.c:
	status_info->ourState = (status_info->ourState + 2) & 0xfffffffe;

I ran the search over the 3.1-STABLE sources -- try it against yours...
