I've implemented the Mutex code without using flock().
This code use mkdir() for exclusive control.
The code passed the test suite (TestMutex.tst) on
Windows 98 and Mac OS X 10.3.6.
Here is the result of the test suite:
Running TestMutex.tst... at line: | 5ok (7 ok)
7 tests, 7 ok, 0 failed

POPFile/Mutex.pm diff from 0.22.2RC2

I have tested this on Linux and Windows 2000 and committed
it. Thanks, I was thinking about doing it this way but you
beat me to it!
