      RTI needs to get their act together.  Requiring kernel changes for
an applications program is totally out of line in today's world.  The
``Ingres lock device'' is a hack that dates back to at least PWB/Unix
and maybe before.  There is enough interprocess communication available
now that it shouldn't be necessary.
