I had the same problem and I know that TCP mounts didn't work, at least on
my systems.  I never tried noconn so I'm not sure if that would work.
I attempted it on a cvsup'd 4.1-RC, and a clean install of both
4.0-20000712-Stable and 4.0-20000717-Stable.  Same result in all 3 occasions
and a lot of wasted time.
In my opinion, the nfs code is broken but my last check of bugs reveaedl no
mention of it.
