O_EXCL?

Note that this file is outside of /srv/lxc/locks. It's been a decade or so since I touched any C code so I'll better wait for your patch. But don't worry Serge, I'm not in a hurry. Worst case, I can create the containers in some other directory and then mv/rsync to the nfs mount point, ... or maybe try samba, but I think it'll be overkill and I better avoid it. Thanks!
