Yes.
(As in, yes it is in 12.1.)

To look to see if this is the case, I go onto
svnweb.freebsd.org
and then look at the commit log for the program (nfsuserd.c in this case)
within the bae/release/12.1.0 branch.
(that's base/release/12.1.0, not bae/…)

(I've been putting off updating that machine, but this may promote the
task to not-optional).

Best wishes,

Norman
