Hm, actually, to produce a failure, we would have to have a filesystem
in the host that doesn't support locks. I don't even know how to get
such a filesystem manually, and it's probably completely impossible in a
test case without root permissions.

So maybe just add a more detailed description of the bug to the commit
message, and we'll have to apply it without a test.
