Yes, you're right, looking at etc/init.d/nfs-common I now see that there
is absolutely no need to set NEED_IDMAPD in etc/common/nfs-common, and
most certainly my problems were merely caused by the wrong domain
setting in idmapd.conf.

Well, --protocols was already declared as obsolete in the manpage that
came with squeeze (which I never bothered to read before the upgrade),
so I'd say that makes it as prominently documented.
