Hello Everyone,

I hope I'm not too far off here but getting rid of flock.c in
win32\build\config.w32 an adding flock_compat to ext\standard\config.w32
seams to solve the compile problems, at least in the 5.2 branch.

Rob tracked it down to the fact that it was using stdio.  I hadn't
realized that.  So, the fix is to use VCWD_OPEN_MODE instead of FOPEN
and a write() instead of the fprintf.
