Yeah, it looks like the same situation.

  1) mozc_server was killed
      lock file remains  (even though it should be removed)
  2) mozc_server try to boot
    1. check lock file there
    2. there is lock file, so cannot get lock file via fcntl
    3. lock file means there is another mozc_server running, 
       so mozc_server will stop boot and finish

The cause of problem is that kernel does not remove lock file
after mozc_server killed. Mozc developer explained me that
fcntl will remove lock file after that process killed. But 
it looks like fnctl() does not remove lock file itself. According
to FreeBSD fcntl(2) manual:

     All locks associated with a file for a given process are removed when the
     process terminates.

No explanation lock file removing. Does FreeBSD fnctl(2) not remove lock file
after process killed?  Apparently from Mozc developer, Linux kernel removes
lock files after process killed.

server side:
  FreeBSD 7.3-PRERELEASE #0: Mon Mar  1 15:10:07 JST 2010 i386
  rc.conf
    nfs_server_enable="YES"
    mountd_enable="YES"
    nfs_reserved_port_only="YES"
    rpc_lockd_enable="YES"
    rpc_statd_enable="YES"

client side:
  FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT #6 r213257: Thu Sep 30 10:30:06 JST 2010 amd64
  rc.conf:
    nfs_client_enable="YES"
    nfs_reserved_port_only="YES"
    rpc_lockd_enable="YES"
    rpc_statd_enable="YES"

I have tested with ZFS because I was doubting NFS working well, 
but result was the same. (I didn't test with UFS.)

Thanks truss output!
