[X] Done, will be in the next snapshot.

Thank you for the report/suggestion.

If you want to test (it works for me), then you can use the patch below,
versus the latest leafnode-2 snapshot.



Update of /var/CVS/leafnode-2
In directory merlin:/home/emma/mywork/leafnode-2

Modified Files:
	texpire.c 
Log Message:
Write "lockfile exists" message to syslog as well. Suggested by John Carlyle-Clarke.
