+   When the host in the lock data is the current host, we can check if
+   the pid is valid with kill.
+   
+   Otherwise, we could look at a separate file that maps hostnames to
+   reboot times to see if the remote pid can possibly be valid, since we
+   don't want Emacs to have to communicate via pipes or sockets or
+   whatever to other processes, either locally or remotely; rms says
+   that's too unreliable.  Hence the separate file, which could
+   theoretically be updated by daemons running separately -- but this
+   whole idea is unimplemented; in practice, at least in our
+   environment, it seems such stale locks arise fiarly infrequently, and
+   Emacs' standard methods of dealing with clashes suffice.

-char *superlock_file;
+   We use symlinks instead of normal files because (1) they can be
+   stored more efficiently on the filesystem, since the kernel knows
+   they will be small, and (2) all the info about the lock can be read
+   in a single system call (readlink).  Although we could use regular
+   files to be useful on old systems lacking symlinks, noawdays
+   virtually all such systems are probably single-user anyway, so it
+   didn't seem worth the complication.
+   
+   Similarly, we don't worry about a possible 14-character limit on
+   file names, because those are all the same systems that don't have
+   symlinks.
+   
+   This is compatible with the locking scheme used by Interleaf (which
+   has contributed this implementation for Emacs), and was designed by
+   Ethan Jacobson, Kimbo Mundy, and others.
