Subversion only supports locking of *files* not directories.
So I've locked "a whole bunch" of files -- all the lzx, lzs, as, xml,
xsl, txt, and html.
For the record, the way I did this is by first getting lists of all
the files I want to lock, like so:
$ find . -name "*.as" | sed -e /svn/d | sed -e /p4/d > allas.txt
and then locking all the files listed in that file:
$ svn lock -m "locking wafflecone in preparation for 4.0.5 release" --
targets allas.txt
If you try to commit a locked file, you will get an obscure message
that includes the word LOCK.
Once Amy gives permission for a checkin, I will unlock just that file
briefly.

I am working on actually svn locking it; svn is misbehaving. (Or
I'm misbehaving.)
Do not check in without approval from Amy Muntz.
