SQLite only issues non-blocking F_SETLK ops (not F_SETLKW) and retries failures using a configurable busy_timeout. SQLite's busy loop sleeps for a millisecond and retries the lock until the configured busy_timeout is hit. Trying to set ->sqlite_busy_timeout to larger values (e.g. 30000 milliseconds) still leads to failure when running the new stress test with 8 processes with TMPDIR on a 7200 RPM HDD. Inspection of SQLite source reveals there's no built-in way to use F_SETLKW, so tack on the existing flock(2) support we use to synchronize git + SQLite + Xapian for inbox writing. We use flock(2) instead of POSIX fcntl(2) locks since Perl doesn't provide a way to manipulate "struct flock" portably.
