Ugh. *sigh*
I wondered idly if we might be able to make a safe assumption about the staleness of the lockfile based on (possibly not very portably) comparing its mtime with the system boot time.

Subject: Win32 fix for miscinit.c
Tom's recent patch to improve stale lockfile detection included a call to getppid() which doesn't exist on Windows. There is no clean way to implement one (previously discussed on hackers-win32) hence the attach patch simply #ifdefs out the call.
Please apply ASAP as the win32 build is currently broken.
