A locking wrapper script
http://code.google.com/p/withlock/
withlock is a locking wrapper script to make sure that some program isn't run more than once. It is ideal to prevent periodic jobs spawned by cron from stacking up.
The locks created are valid only while the wrapper is running, and thus will never require a cleanup, as after a reboot. Thus, the wrapper is safe and easy to use, and much better than implementing half-hearted locking within scripts.

- withlock is now distributed as a tarball, which is generally easier for packaging on some platforms (at least Solaris). The only other change: updated copyright year. (forwarded request 221721 from poeml)
