I have already lockf kernel code from FreeBSD in my local sandbox since I began working on that earlier this year at one point. The most missing resources are spare time and a good idea how to share the lock data between processes in a *sensible* way. The simple appraoch would use Cygserver to keep track of lock data, but I really don't want to involve Cygserver in file I/O.
