On an Auspex,
SunOS caeauspex 4.1.4 1  AUSPEX-VERSION 1.9.2M1Z2  aushp

    When running configure for 2.4.2p1, I get:
checking whether posix fcntl locking works... no
checking whether flock locking works... no
checking whether lockf locking works... no
checking whether lnlock locking works... no
configure: warning: *** No working file locking capability found!
configure: warning: *** Be VERY VERY careful.

    When running configure for 2.4.1p1, I get:
checking whether posix fcntl locking works... yes

Same machine, same terminal window, different distribution directory.

Did the test for file locking change?

My configure command for the respective cases above:

./configure --with-user=root --with-group=bin \
  --prefix=/home/amanda/common --exec-prefix=/home/amanda_2.4.2
  
./configure --with-user=root --with-group=bin \
  --prefix=/home/amanda/common --exec-prefix=/home/amanda_2.4.1
