Of course NT is NOT a relevant platform here, since it is
not POSIX compliant. Yes, you could implement some subset
of POSIX in this environment, and even by fiddling, most
of it, but it is not clear that this is really worth while
if all you want is specific features (I must say I was
unaware of the POSIX standard including record locking,
but there is a lot of stuff there :-)
