Following up on self:

(1) nfsdcld is what is still provided by upstream (nfs-utils) as of
2.4.1 from Aug 2019.

(2) Newer kernels now report:

kernel: NFSD: Using old nfsdcld client tracking operations.

(3) Support for nfsdcld was added back to kernel in May 2019 [1]

So, clearly nothing to do in Arch land - just wait and keep following
upstream as usual.

So just an FYI in case others notice the new message in logs.
