NFS vers4 uid problem

I have two hosts, hostS (a Sun Blade 1000 [SPARC] running Sol10)
and hostO (a Sun Ultra 20 [Opteron] running Sol10 x86 01/06). I
am trying to share the filesystem /export/home from hostS and
mount it on hostO. I am having a problem with NFS version 4.

When using NFS vers=4 (the default), even a simple mount (no
automounting involved) works, but the uid and gid of all files
in the mounted fs are mapped to nobody,nobody. The server's
values are 119,100.

hostS's dfstab:

   share -F nfs -o rw=hostO,root=hostO -d "home dirs" /export/home

hostO's vfstab:

   hostS:/export/home - /home/hostS nfs - yes -

Switching to NFS vers=3 makes it work.

How do I make this work with vers=4?
