I was thinking about that, too. I thought that that would create a
circular dependency between lock.c and procarray.c, but seeing that
that's already the case, I guess it's OK. (lock.c includes procarray.h,
but procarray.c uses stuff from lock.h, even though it doesn't include
it directly.) I'll rework the patch accordingly.
