... on non-windows systems.  On windows, the file is still called _FOSSIL_
because some windows systems have issues with filenames that begin with
".".  And _FOSSIL_ is recognized on all systems for backwards compatibility.

There was another name used for this file at one point - but that other
name turned out to be a mild profanity in Hungarian and hence was changed
to ".fslckout".  That other name is still recognized for backwards
compatibility but is never generated.
