The amd that's shipped with 2.2.2-RELEASE appears to be broken (or I'm
doing something wrong).  It complains about "bad address" when it attempts
a mount; then the mount fails.  I'm starting it manually (to test it)
via:
    amd /n /etc/amd.map

I tried automounting file systems from a SunOS server and a Digital Unix
server, and both failed.

If I use the amd binary that came with 2.2.0-RELEASE, it works fine on the
machine running 2.2.2.  Perhaps it has something to do with the switch to
NFSv3?
