The right way to handle this is generally the way that configure already
handles looking for libsocket and libnsl. First you see if you can get
the function directly from libc, and if you can, you don't look in the
other library for it. Since IRIX has flock() in libc, I think that will
solve the problem for IRIX, and it isn't platform-specific (and on other
platforms, it means linking against fewer libraries that you don't need,
which is also good). I'll make that change shortly.
