 *	Lockrun: This program is used to launch a program out with a lockout
 *	so that only one can run at a time. It's mainly intended for use out
 *	of cron so that our five-minute running jobs which run long don't get
 *	walked on. We find this a *lot* with Cacti jobs which just get hung
 *	up: it's better to miss a polling period than to stack them up and
 *	slow each other down.
 *
 *	So we use a file which is used for locking: this program attempts to
 *	lock the file, and if the lock exists, we have to either exit with
 *	an error, or wait for it to release.
 *
 *		lockrun --lockfile=FILE -- my command here
 *
 * COMMAND LINE
 * ------------
 *
 * --lockfile=F
 *
 *	Specify the name of a file which is used for locking. The file is
 *	created if necessary (with mode 0666), and no I/O of any kind is
 *	done. The file is never removed.
 *
 * --maxtime=N
 *
 *	The script being controlled should run for no more than <N> seconds,
 *	and if it's beyond that time, we should report it to the standard
 *	error (which probably gets routed to the user via cron's email).
 *
 * --wait
 *
 *	When a lock is hit, we normally exit with error, but --wait causes
 *	it to loop until the lock is released.
 *
 * --verbose
 *
 *	Show a bit more runtime debugging.
 *
 * --quiet
 *
 *	Don't show "run is locked" error if things are busy; keeps cron from
 *	overwhelming you with messages if lockrun overlap is not uncommon.
 *
 * --
 *
 *	Mark the end of the options: the command to run follows.

 *	This is a helper for the main arg-processing loop: we work with

 *	want an easy way to handle either one.
 *
 *	The idea is that if the parameter has an = sign, we use the rest
 *	of that same argv[X] string, otherwise we have to get the *next*
 *	argv[X] string. But it's an error if an option-requiring param
 *	is at the end of the list with no argument to follow.
 *
 *	The option name could be of the form "-C" or "--conf", but we
 *	grab it from the existing argv[] so we can report it well.
