// Package flock provides portable file locking. It is essentially ripped out
// from the code of github.com/syndtr/goleveldb. Strange enough that the
// standard library does not provide this functionality. Once this package has
// proven to work as expected, we should probably turn it into a separate
// general purpose package for humanity.
