I did some testing and can confirm that what Jim wrote below only tells me whether a path has an auto-mount trigger, but not whether it's actually reachable at the moment.

Ooops, correction! I had tested this poorly.

It turns out that the DIR_MNTSTATUS_TRIGGER flag is apparently only set when a mount point is currently looking to re-mount an auto-mounted share, meaning that this is indeed the solution to my problem: This flag lets me know whether automountd is waiting for a once-mounted NFS share to become accessible again. Unless, of course, I am still wrong. Time and testing will tell...
