¿¡¿Why would you want to set automount-dir-prefix to such a value?!?

I think you're confused.  Most likely you don't need
automount-dir-prefix (few people use automounters nowadays, and all
automounters I know don't use anything like the /tmp_mnt used back
then).  If you've accidentally used a directory named /tmp_mnt, then I'd
suggest you set automount-dir-prefix to something harmless like "\\'a".
