The autofs maintainer (Ian Kent) tries to keep the v4 kernel module
compatible with v3.  However, if you don't report problems, they won't

autofs4 isn't exactly supported technology either.  You'd be moving from
one dead-end to another.  I've CC'd the autofs list.  If you have
suggestions and/or specific bugs, please let us know.
