This is not likely doing what you expect.
$ perl -MO=Deparse,-p -e 'use Fcntl qw(:flock); flock WRITE_COMMENT, LOCK_EX || die
"cannot lock comment file: $!";'
-e syntax OK
sub LOCK_SH {}
sub LOCK_EX {}
sub LOCK_UN {}
sub LOCK_NB {}
flock(WRITE_COMMENT, (LOCK_EX() || die("cannot lock comment file: $!")));
Note the parentheses. The LOCK_EX is part of the "or die", but not
the flock.
