Alright, in preparation for finally cleaning up our suboptimal autoconf
mess, I am tackling acconfig.h (a template which users can edit to
change defaults).  My feeling is all of that should either be controlled
by autoconf or we take a decision on whether or not to keep or remove
that code.  Here is the list:

LOCKDIR         - A directory to place lock files in if you're using
                 DOT_LOCKING.  I've never been happy with nmh's use of
                 dot locking, but do people actually use this?  It's
                 easy enough to add the support for this to autoconf.

I use dot locking from time to time. I think I set LOCKDIR in the past
(5 years back, no longer at that job) to work around an issue.

NFS?
