For those interested, packages with this patch included are available on my
people site:
http://people.redhat.com/~jmoyer/
Included is the changelog for 4.1.3 thus far. Share and enjoy!

- Perform an icmp ping request before rpc_pings, since the rpc clnt_create
function has a builtin default timeout of 60 seconds. This could result
in a long delay when a server in a replicated mount setup is down.
- For non-replicated server entries, ping a host before attempting to mount.
(Ian Kent)
- Change to %configure.
- Put version-release into .version to allow for automount --version to
print exact info.
- Nuke my get-best-mount patch which always uses the long timeout. This
should no longer be needed.
- Put name into changelog entries to make them consistent. Add e:n-v-r
into Florian's entry.
- Stop autofs before uninstalling
* Sat Jun 05 2004 Florian La Roche <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - 1:4.1.3-3
- add a preun script to remove autofs
* Tue Jun 1 2004 Jeff Moyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - 1:4.1.3-2
- Incorporate patch from Ian which fixes an infinite loop seen by those
running older versions of the kernel patches (triggered by non-strict mounts
being the default).
* Tue Jun 1 2004 Jeff Moyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - 1:4.1.3-1
- Update to upstream 4.1.3.
