+ *  Modified by jwade 4/16/2002 to work around seen file locking problem
38f2261
+ *  Added locking timeout parameter to allow processes that are  
38f2261
+ *  waiting for a lock to eventually time out
38f2261
+ *
38f2261
+ *  Calls flock() in non-blocking fashion and then retries until a 
38f2261
+ *  maximum delay is reached or the lock succeeds.
38f2261
+ *  
38f2261
+ *  As written, uses a quadratic backoff on retries with MAXTIME being
38f2261
+ *  the longest interval delay.   Total delay time is the sum of the squares
38f2261
+ *  of all integers whose square is less than MAXTIME.  In the case of 
38f2261
