Be careful. From LockFileEx docs:
"However, the time it takes for the operating system to unlock these
locks depends upon available system resources. Therefore, it is
recommended that your process explicitly unlock all files it has locked
when it terminates. If this is not done, access to these files may be
denied if the operating system has not yet unlocked them."
ROTFL ... so to translate: "If your program crashes, please release
locks before crashing."
Obviously that wasn't the intent of the above, but I guess it is the net
effect. Either way, I don't think it's a huge problem, it just means
that PG may not be able to restart for a few seconds until the OS has
time to clean-up the locks.
