Indeed, I've just been doing some further research myself and it seems 
as though flock on NFS isn't recommended. It states using fnctl is a 
better alternative, so I'm looking to see if there is a way to do that 
natively in bash which could possibly replace the use of flock. I have 
done all the build on NFS and this is the only issue I have run into, so 
I feel it's probably worthwhile to see if there is a reasonable work around.

Cheers,
