this was expected. It is highly unlikely that win32 has flock() or fcntl()
There will have to be some #ifdef WIN32_NATIVEs in this file.

For now, I would suggest something like:

#ifdef WIN32_NATIVE
  #undef FILE_LOCKING
#endif

But more appropriate would be to apply Jason's autoconf patch (attached)
Perhaps you should look it over and commit it per.
