Going with the lockd code on builder is great with me.  The last I had
looked it had some of the same issues as the lockd developed here (no
handling of grace periods, etc.), so on a featureset we are even.  The rpics
lockd has the advantage of being known by some of us to a much greater extent
than the BSDI code.  _However_ the BSDI code has undergone much more testing
and design work than the rpics one.  Given this I think the clear choice is
with the BSDI code.

>sigh<  now, if I wasn't always getting buried with stuff.
