Question to Dr. Volker Zell's sendmail-patch

["Gerrit P. Haase" <gerrit dot haase at t-online dot de>]

Hi Dr. Zell,

i found your patch at the archives, i want to build sendmail, but i got some questions.
Here is a part from that patch.
You do a define of USE_LOCKF.
A little below, there is a part with LOCK_EX and flock commented out.
Also i found in the sources a definition of LOCK_EX, which is initialised with
F_LOCK. So i didn't found F_LOCK, where does it came from?

+#endif

  * If you don't have flock, you could try using lockf instead.
