 Ok not sure how valid this is...
 
 I stopped auto*mount*
 I built and loaded the new autofs module.
 restarted auto*mount* and confirmed autofs still worked.
 
 I stopped auto*mount*
 and created a quick and dirty chroot
 
 /h/tmp/chroot/ with a full copy of /etc
 and just enough of /lib and /libexec to run =
 
 cat /h/tmp/chroot/tmp/tit.sh
 #/bin/sh
 
 /etc/rc.d/autounmountd start
 /etc/rc.d/automountd start
 /etc/rc.d/automount start
 
 df -h /homes/sjg/tmp
 
 when I ran that it hung at df
 dmesg says
 
 [ 511376.695498] WARNING: autofs_trigger_one: cv_wait_sig for /h/tmp/chroo=
 t/homes/ failed with error -3
