Can you point me at some articles that provide test cases for this? I
may be missing something, but RDLCK is RDLCK, and it shouldn't matter if
that userland passes it in via a compatability interface.
Anecdotally, I've never encountered any problems like you describe with
the old libc4 locking scheme; it doesn't mean that they don't exist,
of course, but it does mean that I'm less likely take IT'S BROKEN at
face value.
