Bug description: flock does not initialize the wouldblock argument when it succeeds
locking
Description:
------------
flock() does not initialize the wouldblock argument when present and it
succeeds locking, even when non-blocking locking is requested.
It is also failing when wouldblock argument is not present but non
blocking locking is requested and flock() system call returns EWOULDBLOCK.
This is a minor issue.
This patch should fix both issues:

}
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
if(!($file=(fopen("testfile","w")))) die("could not open file");
if(flock($file,6,&$wouldblock))
echo "flock succeed, wouldblock
",serialize($wouldblock),"\n";
else
echo "flock failed\n";
fclose($file);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
flock succeed, wouldblock i:0;
Actual result:
--------------
flock succeed, wouldblock N;
