I'm looking at a reasonable way of doing this.  It probably can be done
only into a file map, though.  It's an incredibly poor way of doing
this, though (it puts inside the map what should be at a higher level.) 
The "multi" map feature in the Linux autofs provides the same
functionality in a more powerful way.
