Oh Boy ...

Edit the file /usr/src/uts/m68/cf/conf.c and locate the line
containing '#define NFLOCK' and change that number to your
favorite value.  I think Plexus does something with NPROC.
Try doubling whatever value they provide.

You will have to relink your kernel next.  There should be
a shell script in /usr/src/uts/:mkuts, or something like that.
Execute that shell script and then go looking for the output.

You don't need anything more than conf.c [ or c.c ] to
regenerate most of your kernels.
