DAMMIT ! I've received a workaround on Friday and I simply
forgot to put it here (my apologies); here it comes.

=== cut here ===

Run 'visionfs clientadmin --stop'
umount /smb   (or whereever, just to be safe)
Revert all user modified files to be 'as shipped' (maybe easier to
reinstall
VisionFS? You can save copies of current.prf, mapfile, authfile, and
copy
them back before starting)

As root:
  cd /usr/local/vision
  rm vfsprofile/client.prf
  vi visionfs/_init/client/rsai*.prf

change the line

[nfsserver/mount/options={(,retry=0,timeo=300,rsize=4096,wsize=4096,soft)}]

to read

[nfsserver/mount/options={(,retry=0,timeo=300,rsize=4096,wsize=4096,soft,proto=udp)}]

Run 'visionfs clientadmin --setup'.

=== cut here ===

I've expressely asked the customer to report back to me his findings
in order to inform SCO about this issue; if this workaround does
work for yoy, please tell me.

Best,
Roberto
