I assume that you execute touch command as a root on hostB.
Try change permission on /home1/pkg/test to 777 and then execute touch command on hostB.
If this allow you to create file, then check the UID and GID of this file. I think it will be 'nobody'.

You can use option anon with share, but this is insecure solution.
Code:
share -o anon=0 /home1/pkg/test

If user can't be authenticated, then files are created with UID 0. It should work even if directory has 755 rights.

If above didn't help, then maybe there are some problems with authentication in version 4.
Try remount on hostB with this option:
Code:
hostB: # mount -F nfs -o vers=3 hostA:/home1/pkg/test /tmp/test
