Hmm, interesting - where did you get this source (I want it!).  I
pulled down mine from
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5.0/updates/SRPMS/ yesterday - it is
dated 15-Jun-2007 23:32, which is 15 days older than your config
files.  Mine (which are in the SOURCES directory) show this:

64703 Jun  1 15:44 kernel-2.6.18-x86_64.config
64767 Jun  1 15:44 kernel-2.6.18-x86_64-kdump.config
65935 Jun  1 15:44 kernel-2.6.18-x86_64-xen.config

and they contain (before reconfiguration):

./kernel-2.6.18-x86_64.config
CONFIG_AUTOFS_FS=m
CONFIG_AUTOFS4_FS=m

./kernel-2.6.18-x86_64-xen.config
CONFIG_AUTOFS_FS=m
CONFIG_AUTOFS4_FS=m

./kernel-2.6.18-x86_64-kdump.config
CONFIG_AUTOFS_FS=m
CONFIG_AUTOFS4_FS=m

Even the CentOSplus kernel source (which I do not have) is only dated
June 26....
