tests/qemu-iotests/296.out also needs to be adjusted (found by grepping for 'Failed to get').

And now I might as well add this idea: EAGAIN is the most common errno when flock fcntl fails, so would it make sense to generate a custom error message then? I’d like to think we could do better than “Resource temporarily unavailable”, e.g. perhaps “Lock is already taken”.

OTOH, “Resource temporarily unavailable” isn’t *that* bad, so if you don’t want to, I won’t push for it.
