I am not aware of any work done on amd to get it to work for NFSv4 mounts.

nmount(2). It would need to be converted to use nmount(2) so that it
could do NFSv4 mounts, I think (without looking at the code).

I once looked at the amd sources and decided to "run away..", so
good luck if you try and convert it.
