I've also experience the O_EXCL problem with Lattice 5.04 and 5.04a.  I get
a GURU when doing the open when the file already exists:

	if((fd = open(lockname, O_WRONLY|O_EXCL|O_CREAT,0600)) == -1)
		return -1;

This is a pretty annoying problem. I haven't check 5.05 yet, but I don't 
think that any of the library routines involved were updated.
