Yes, when you mount it manually you don't escape the "$"

When I was on Fedora 8 and autofs-5.0.2-16 
<http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=46891> 
<http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=46891> it worked
Then when I upgraded only autofs to 5.0.3 it was broken
Doesn't that suggest that it is something in the autofs code that can 
therefore be potentially fixed?
