I applied this on top of HEAD and added some debugging messages to block/raw-posix.c so I can see when files are being opened and locked, and it does appear to do the right thing for read-only and write-exclusive files, ie. it applies an exclusive lock when opening a file for write-exclusive, and no lock when opening a file for read. However I didn't test the write-shareable case (the libvirt <shareable/> flag which should map to a shared lock -- is that right Dan?).
