Hey Martin,

This patch should also fix that.

With this patch, `automount -u` will try to use umount(8) when unmounting
filesystems.

umount(8) does some additional work such as notifying the mountd server that a
NFS mount has been unmounted, which will remove the /var/db/mountdtab entry on
the mountd server. If the notification to the mountd server is successful, the
/var/db/mounttab entry will also be removed.

-Rob
