That's different. What about trying the empty file again ?

N.B. if my assumption is right that the preferred blocksize of 64k
is truncated somewhere and causing this behaviour, then you either need
to serve a filesystem with smaller blocks or patch the NFS server
code in nfsm_srvfattr() to verify this. For NFSv2 the value is transmitted
in fa2_blocksize.
