AFAIK, to mount a remote NFS share without relaying on a local portmap
daemon, you must use static port assignment for the remote rpc.nfsd and
rpc.mountd daemons. This can be achieved with:

# mount remote_machine:/share /mount_point -o
port=nfsd_port,mountport=mountd_port

However, I haven't found a way to specify the port for the local
nfs.lockd daemon. Thus, if I want to disable portmap locally, I must
append the nolock option to the previous mount command.
