   The automounter shouldn't die because of a stale NFS handle.  Send
   SIGUSR1 to automount to force it to unmount any filesystems it can.  If
   it can't umount the filesystems, killing the automounter isn't going to
   help.

To repeat the earlier question: is there a way to clear this without
having to restart the machine?  I made the mistake of trying to
restart the automounter when there were automounted directories.  I
was unable to get autofs working without a reboot.

Linux 2.2.17, autofs-3.1.4 patched to make multi work.
