I found what may be the culprit in fstab.c where it would attempt to add to the list the "remounted" autofs mount, but as it was not already mounted (and in /etc/mntab ?) this added to the list the NULL values. This case is also common to mount, and a side effect of this seems to be the eleimination of some odd messages about failing to mount CIFS mounts in fstab (see bug #575293)

Using the package 'mount' (util-linux-2.17.2/mount) and the attached changes to fstab.c seems to work for me.
