Peter, if you're fine with this version. May I apply it?
Unless you have a tree for autofs.

Thanks.

Sure, I can split up the patch and integrate the autofs 3 part, I'll send
the standalone autofs4 version to Ian.

Thanks.

Ian Kent is the maintainer of autofs4 and patches for autofs4 should go
through him (or acked by him.)

autofs 3 is officially unmaintained; I'm more than happy to have you
push the autofs 3 bits of this patch.

I think in this case it's really more appropriate to change both autofs3
and autofs4 together, to avoid interdependencies. Whichever way Ian
prefers (ack the patch or take it) would work though.
