Clone the git repository:

git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/storage/autofs/autofs.git
cd autofs
./configure --disable-mount-locking --enable-ignore-busy
DEBUG=1 make

should work.

If this still doesn't work and you are not able to update your make then
consider grabbing the autofs5 package from CentOS 4u8 (if u8 is
available) and use that. That package is reasonably up to date wrt.
5.0.5. You will need to check when autofs5 was added to CentOS 4 because
it will require the kernel of at least that CentOS 4 update. Indeed, if
you do manage to build 5.0.5 from source (+ patches) and you do not have
a kernel with the version 5 patches it will refuse to start. So you need
to do this check anyway.
