has requested the lock in a non-blocking form, instead returning an
immediate failure. This appears to help reduce one of my "locks get
lost" symptoms involving lockf(1), which attempts a non-blocking lock
attempt before actually blocking on the lock. At this point the client
still gets back EACCES, which is an issue we're still working.

Alfred, I took a look at retry_blockingfilelocklist() and the
solution seemed simple enough. Please correct me if I am wrong.
It seems said routine doesn't take into account boundary conditions
when putting back file_lock entries into the blocked lock-list.
Specifically, it fails when the file_lock being put back is the
last element in the list, and when it is the only element in the
list. I've included a patch below.
Basically, it introduces another variable: pfl, which keeps track
of the list item before ifl. That way if nfl is NULL, ifl gets
inserted after pfl. If pfl is also NULL, then it gets inserted
at the head of the list (since it was the only element in the
list).

Fix the WARNS 1 warnings except unused variables.
Add prototype for log_netobj().
Don't compare signed/unsigned.
Cast u_int64_t to 'unsigned long long' and print using %llu.
Fix constness of string arrays.
Use a cast to avoid an unused parameter in a signal handler.
alarm(2) can't fail, so don't check for it.
ANSI'ify some functions.
associated changes that had to happen to make this possible as well as
bugs fixed along the way.
Bring in required TLI library routines to support this.
Since we don't support TLI we've essentially copied what NetBSD
has done, adding a thin layer to emulate direct the TLI calls
into BSD socket calls.
This is mostly from Sun's tirpc release that was made in 1994,
however some fixes were backported from the 1999 release (supposedly
only made available after this porting effort was underway).
The submitter has agreed to continue on and bring us up to the
1999 release.
Several key features are introduced with this update:
Client calls are thread safe. (1999 code has server side thread
safe)
Updated, a more modern interface.
Many userland updates were done to bring the code up to par with
the recent RPC API.
There is an update to the pthreads library, a function
pthread_main_np() was added to emulate a function of Sun's threads
library.
While we're at it, bring in NetBSD's lockd, it's been far too
long of a wait.
New rpcbind(8) replaces portmap(8) (supporting communication over
an authenticated Unix-domain socket, and by default only allowing
set and unset requests over that channel). It's much more secure
than the old portmapper.
Umount(8), mountd(8), mount_nfs(8), nfsd(8) have also been upgraded
to support TI-RPC and to support IPV6.
Umount(8) is also fixed to unmount pathnames longer than 80 chars,
which are currently truncated by the Kernel statfs structure.
