CentOS - Feb 2012 - init/upstart issue? ypbind and autofs

One problem I have with custom CentOS 6 installation is that NIS auto.*
 maps are not available. According to boot.log, ypbind starts before autofs,
 but when I login to the machine, the maps are not available until I issue
 a service autofs restart.

 Any pointers on what to check?

 I guess CentOS doesn't use pid randomisation. autofs does start before
 ybind:

root      2107     1  0 16:40 ?        00:00:00 automount --pid-file
/var/run/autofs.pid
root      2517     1  0 16:41 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/ypbind
root      3009  2976  0 16:43 pts/0    00:00:00 egrep auto|ypb

 Another machine I installed interactively (this one is kickstarted) works
 correctly.
