userlocks is just a very thin interface to functionality that's really in
the backend. What's left in contrib/userlock probably isn't even
copyrightable in any case. The best bet is probably to re-implement it in
the backend directly.

Removing it certainly isn't a good idea; the functionality is important.
(It doesn't "rely on per-record OIDs" either.)
