Now t/curse passes again when parallelized (except for the countall
mismatch, since we haven't fixed the source of that problem yet). At least
it's consistent now.
There's a bunch of stuff rearranged in here, but the actual important
problem was that we were doing unlink() on the lock fifo even if ENXIO,
which meant a reader could connect in between ENXIO and unlink(), and thus
never get notified of the disconnection. This would cause the build to
randomly freeze.
