Perhaps not libexec, because they are perfectly valid to be run from the
command prompt.  libexec stuff is for things that are only useful when started
by something else, eg: getty, telnetd, rshd, etc.  

I've not connected it to the makefile, because I'm not finished with it yet,
even though it compiles.  I'm half way through doing a rpcgen run (like the YP
server) on the fly with a seperate main() and glue, so that it uses the
new-style rpcgen "structure"..  That sort of thing needs to go through a few
rounds of feedback with the author though.

BTW: in case anybody was wondering, the lockd test program doesn't work.. it
even returns "fail" on a genuine sun derived NFS/Lockd.

Cheers,
-Peter
