1998-04-25  Mark Kettenis  <kettenis@phys.uva.nl>

	* sysdeps/generic/utmp_file.c (TIMEOUT): New macro.
	(timeout_handler): New function.
	(LOCK_FILE, UNLOCK_FILE): New macros.
	Implement file locking with timeout.
	(getutent_r_file, internal_getut_r, getutline_r_file,
	pututline_file, updwtmp_file): Use LOCK_FILE and UNLOCK_FILE for
	locking.
