Summary: clusterwide flock

Initial Comment:
I would like that BSD style flock is made clusterwide.

Many webapps in php is using flock.

Also, php itself is using flock for locking session
files. (although, you can use somthing else than files
for session data).

Take that back flock is not clusterwide in SSI-1.9.  flock needs to be
converted to posix style lock to be clusterwide.  For now use fcntl or
another PHP session.save_handler.

OpenSSI-1.9 may already have this, not sure yet.
