Confirmed here.

= Steps to reproduce =

On the server:

- Create user1 (uid 1001), user2 (uid 1002) and user3 (uid 1003), with
home directory under /home/autofs/

- Install package nfs-kernel-server, configure /etc/exports with:

    /home/autofs    *(rw)


On the client:

- Create user1 (uid 1001), user2 (uid 1002) and user3 (uid 1003) with
home under /home/autofs/.  Notice the uid are consistent with the
server.

- Install package autofs5, configure /etc/auto.master with:

    /home/autofs    /etc/auto.home

and /home/auto.home with:
    * -fstype=nfs,soft,intr,nosuid    nfsserver:/home/autofs/&

(where "nfsserver" is the hostname of the aserver above)

- Reboot (for good measure)

- At the GDM prompt, switch to a VT with Ctrl-Alt-F1, login as a non-
autofs user

- Witness all autofs home directory are currently mounted


When we disable the user listing as explained in the bug description, the home 
directory would not get mounted when GDM started, but they all will as soon as 
a single user log on.

When testing using a different display manager (xdm), it only mount the
user home directory on log in, as expected.
