I submitted the kernel patches for NFS file locking once; I assume
you lost them?

I can do the (fairly trivial) code in the rpc.lockd that goes with
those patches after I verify one or two more things with Andrew
(I assume that it's Andrew's rpc.lockd that is now in the source
tree?  I saw it go by on a SUP a while back...).

Client locking is a bigger problem.  It is nearly impossible without
the VOP_LOCK changes I have been consistently advocating.
