I have the sources published with Sun's PCNFS-4.0 if you want them.
They build OK on NetBSD-current (after trivial changes).
No, there is not one in NetBSD itself. (core: Should there be?)

The Sun version built OK for me using:
CFLAGS= -g -DUSER_CACHE -DWTMP -DUSE_YP
LIBS= -lrpcsvc -lcrypt
so yes, you need -lcrypt from somewhere. (Get the Aussie one?)

Install rpc.pcnfsd in /usr/libexec, create the file /etc/pcnfsd.conf
(see pcnfsd.8c), and add the following line to /etc/inetd.conf
pcnfsd/2 dgram rpc/udp wait root /usr/libexec/rpc.pcnfsd rpc.pcnfsd
