LockFile didn't change AFAICT. What may have changed is: - timing of some operations may have changed (and if LockFile is really used & several threads/processes are used, this changes the whole picture) - reading operations has been a bit improved (which comes back to bullet above) But, I don't think those would lead to the no access to directory error. I think it's more something in the file management code which can play in this area, not the file locking.
> Are there plans to add LockFile support into Wine? they've been some talks of implementing it lately, but not lots of very conclusive so far. A+
