Try "broken" rather than "incompatible". Flock had lots of problems
under SunoS until recently. I had to disable all locking in CAP to run it
sucessfully under 4.0.3. I believe that 4.1.1 contains lots of locking fixes
and things should work now, but I haven't been brave enough to put the
locking back in my version of CAP yet.

You might be able to get a patch tape from Sun, but the answer is probably an upgrade to 4.1.1.
