Ah, a new maintainer for rpc.lockd!  Are you interested in fixing the problem 
that occurs with libpidfile, where locks acquired before fork are never 
properly released?  Also, right now I've made lock acquisition sleeps in the 
kernel non-interruptible because the kernel->user protocol doesn't have a way 
to cancel requests, but it would be very nice if that were fixed.
