But now I'm asking "why would anyone want to change these?" On any given UNIX platform, there is one way to lock files in the general case (and perhaps separately in the mbox case), and every other app I've seen just compiles in those methods and calls it a day. Do we really need to be able to switch this stuff at run time?
Only use case I can think of is if the system's native VFS has one preferred locking method, but some files are on NFS and require different locking?
