Another way to accomplish a similar result -- especially if you're
already using amd -- is to make use of the ability (within an amd map)
to specify a "type" of "link" (vs. "nfs").
This (type=link) simulates a symlink, as opposed to simulating an NFS
mount.
I've been using it for >1.5 years here to avoid loopback NFS mounts.
