Autofs,
The --ghost option that shows all mounts even when not mounted is not a map option but a deamon option. In the startup script all options beside --timeout get pushed to the back of the commandline. --ghost does not belong there but rather right after the automount commmand in the commandline.. Why is it called deamon options anyway when all but --timeout is considered a map option?

I need the ghost option and hacked the script to have it anyway. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.add --ghost to the deamon options in /etc/conf.d/autofs
2.see how it does not work and even complain in the log
3.

Actual Results:  
autofs did not work at all.. 

Expected Results:  
just show all the stuff I configured in the map file....
