On a medium-sized installation with a few thousand automounter entries,
the resulting mount storm makes the system unusable. It is constantly
spawning new automount processes (almost like a fork bomb) and keeps
haldaemon at 99% CPU. Not sure how gvfs triggers this, a simple stat
/home/.Trash (where /home is autofs) sure doesn't trigger a mount storm.

This is happening from time to time; the bug was also in feisty and
seems to be more likely to occurr in hardy.
