I wanted to use curlftpfs together with autofs on a multi-user system. Everything worked fine out of the box except for the fact that the user's .netrc is read. Since autofs doesn't mount the file systems as the given user, obviously, it cannot find the user's .netrc file.

So here's a patch to give the location of the netrc file via an option. In a program map for autofs, the filesystem option netrc=\$HOME/.netrc can then be given, to find the netrc of the user requesting the mount.
