Re: does PHP5 do locking on PHP files that are included in a way PHP4 didn't?

It shouldn't be locking the file. Is there any chance that you have a "zombie" process that does have a lock? I noticed some weird locking behaviour like this today using a recent cygwin release (seems like bash held a lock on a directory that I had cd'ed into earlier in the day). This was totally unrelated to PHP. Are you also sure that this isn't the infamous need-to-sleep(1)-after-unlink-before-creating-a-new-file problem that has existed on Windows for while? --Wez.
