nope. the man page is from Dec 1999, the perl script "supermount" is
copyright mandrake with no version and
/usr/src/linux-2.2.14/fs/supermount/super.c says nothing special
either. maybe it IS still 0.6.

amd and autofs are supposed to be sort of filling the same niche, but
each has features the other doesn't. vold I never heard of. amd and
autofs run as daemons with seperate incompatible config files (in amd's
case a very cryptic one!) and supermount is an elegant kernel patch
fitting right into the fstab. exquisite.
