Does the patch below help?
Spectacularly no! With this patch the "glitch1" script with multiple scrolling windows has all xterms and glxgears stop totally dead for ~200ms once per second. I didn't properly test anything else after that.

Bill, could you try the patch below - does it fix the automount problem, without introducing new problems?

Okay, as noted off-list, after I exported the xtime_seconds it now builds and works. However, there are a *lot* of "section mismatches" which are not reassuring.

Boots, runs, glitch1 test runs reasonably smoothly. automount has not used significant CPU yet, but I don't know what triggers it, the bad behavior did not happen immediately without the patch. However, it looks very hopeful.

Warnings attached to save you the trouble...
