I don't want to tell you how to run your ISP, but surely you have a defined maintenance window that allows you to at least apply a set of NFS-related patches to a running box, and then rebooting it? At worst, the behaviour won't change, but OTOH, it may solve your file locking problems, and you can move on to other things.
