DOT_LOCK weird bug found, fix enclosed
#7

The strange problem people were having that manifested as mush
seeming to read part of its folder as input resulted from calling
close() on something that was not a file descriptor.  This only
happens when DOT_LOCK is defined; patch is appended.

This patch is a diff against 7.2.5 and includes previously posted changes
to lock.c and xcreat.c.  The "fixed" subdirectory in mush-7.2.5.tar.Z in
cse.ogi.edu's ftp area has these changes now.
