he doesn't need them---he's using the traditional automounter, like we
all used to use before this newfangled mirror mounts baloney.

There were no mirror mounts with the old UFS NFSv3 setup that he
inherited, and it worked fine.  Maybe mirror mounts are breaking the
automounter?

I think someone who knows the automounter better than I could explain
it, but one thing you migh try is to make the server and client's
filesystems similarly-nested.  Right now you have:

/ws/com            /mnt/<...>/GroupWS
/ws/Integration    /mnt/<...>/GroupWS/Integration
/ws/cstools        /mnt/<...>/GroupWS/cstools
/ws/Upgrades       /mnt/<...>/GroupWS/Upgrades

so, /ws/{Integration,cstools,upgrades} are decendents of /ws/com on
the server, but not the client.  This may break some assumption that
the automounter needs to function, an assumption which I don't have
enough experience and wit to state quickly and explicitly but suspect
might exist.

Why not change to:

/ws/com            /mnt/<...>/GroupWS/com
/ws/Integration    /mnt/<...>/GroupWS/Integration
/ws/cstools        /mnt/<...>/GroupWS/cstools
/ws/Upgrades       /mnt/<...>/GroupWS/Upgrades

or:

/ws/com                /mnt/<...>/GroupWS
/ws/com/Integration    /mnt/<...>/GroupWS/Integration
/ws/com/cstools        /mnt/<...>/GroupWS/cstools
/ws/com/Upgrades       /mnt/<...>/GroupWS/Upgrades

and update the auto.ws map to match whichever you pick.
