We welcome a solution when one is found! The chickens among us would, if using Solaris, rather use the PostgreSQL-based queue storage module instead :)
 That brings a number of advantages:
- Queue processing is faster for larger queues, since unlike the file-based storage which scans the entire queue directory tree on each run, this one only picks up messages due for processing
 - Message archival is built in.

I have noticed the same problem. With fcntl locks, the lock isn't associated with a file descriptor, it's associated with the file, so if someone opens the file, checks the lock and closes the file in the same process, the lock is released.

Since it's a required lock, perhaps Solaris mandatory locking would be a better way to deal with the problem than a dict?

Closer reading seems to indicate that that won't work either.  Nuts.
