R: Bug#684859: AutoFS fails to start on some occasions for networked D-E client systems
I didn't check. But there is really no need to manage eth0 with n-m. It is enough to set dhcp with ”hotplug” option in /etc/network/interfaces and kick out n-m from eth0, editing NetworkManager.conf.
Laptops will be happy too.
Actually I have never seen autofs race conditions in debian. Ubuntu suffer from this problem since the last 4 releases.

Well, network-manager is useful for laptop clients to be able to access
wireless and mobile broandband connections, so I think we should keep
it. But have you checked the dependency/start order of network-manager
and autofs services? Is sounds like there is something wrong there.
Autofs should start after network-manager service.
