I wanted the two lock styles to be cooperative, but there were so many
race and deadlock conditions that the current solution was the only
practical one. It puts us in the same position as, for example, SunOS
-4.1.x and serveral other commercial Unices. The only OS's that support
+4.1.x and several other commercial Unices. The only OS's that support
cooperative flock()/fcntl() are those that emulate flock() using
fcntl(), with all the problems that implies.
