>Description:

        amd(8) maps can select default options based on an 'os'
        selector. This used to be "netbsdelf${OSVER}" before am-utils
        6.1. 

        Back in 2005, I questioned the sensibility of that decision on
        the am-utils mailing-list (see
        
<http://www.fsl.cs.sunysb.edu/mailman/private/am-utils/2005-May/thread.html>,
        thread "am-utils-6.1-rc4 released" - login required), and
        Christos and Erez Zadok agreed to change the NetBSD selector
        to an un-versioned "netbsd".

        Now, while the changelog at
        "src/external/bsd/am-utils/dist/NEWS" says


*** Notes specific to am-utils version 6.1-rc5

For NetBSD systems, $os used to say "netbsdelf1" or "netbsdelf2."  Now it
just says "netbsd."


        (what about the trailing period?), the netbsd-5 amd(8) still
        uses 'netbsd5'

"type:=nfsl;opts:=rw,grpid,nosuid,quota,vers=3,proto=udp,hard,intr,xlatecookie,noac,nolock,rsize=32768,wsize=32768"


        which requires map madness like


/defaults       os==netbsd1;\
                        
type:=nfsl;opts:=rw,grpid,nosuid,quota,vers=3,proto=udp,hard,intr,\
                                xlatecookie,nolock,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 \
                os==netbsd2;\
                        
type:=nfsl;opts:=rw,grpid,nosuid,quota,vers=3,proto=udp,hard,intr,\
                                xlatecookie,nolock,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 \
                os==netbsd3;\
                        
type:=nfsl;opts:=rw,grpid,nosuid,quota,vers=3,proto=udp,hard,intr,\
                                xlatecookie,nolock,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 \
                os==netbsd4;\
                        
type:=nfsl;opts:=rw,grpid,nosuid,quota,vers=3,proto=udp,hard,intr,\
                                xlatecookie,nolock,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 \
                os==netbsd5;\
                        
type:=nfsl;opts:=rw,grpid,nosuid,quota,vers=3,proto=udp,hard,intr,\
                                xlatecookie,nolock,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 \
                os==linux;\
                        
type:=nfsl;opts:=rw,grpid,nosuid,quota,vers=3,proto=udp,hard,intr,\
                                nolock,rsize=32768,wsize=32768


        -- note the *one* linux selector as opposed to five identical netbsd? 
entries.


>How-To-Repeat:

        Set up an am-utils map with OS dependent default selectors on
        a newer NetBSD version.

>Fix:
        
        My guess is that this is a 'cvs import' related
        regression. But since I have not been able to find the actual
        code which sets up the os selector, I cannot be sure.

        Please make sure a fix gets pulled up to all stable branches.
