Sorry about the latency in my reply.

I first noticed this problem on the autofs distributed
with FC2 (4.1.2).  I tested 4.1.3 and it didn't appear to
fix it (I had noticed the patch).  Version 3.1.7 worked okay,
probably because it didn't attempt an fsck before mounting
ext2/3 file systems.  You can easily test it by creating
a map like such...

cat > /etc/auto.local << EOF
root      -fstype=ext3          :/dev/<root partition>
EOF

automount /local file /etc/auto.local

Attempting to access /local/root will fail because the
fsck failed since the file system is already mounted.
