After I've discovered 0, I'm writing a small tool for auditing a kv file. The plugable "lock" functionality adopted by kv earlier effectively forces to use the same locking as Camlistore uses. Otherwise the DB can be locked by Camlistore, but can appear unlocked to the tool if it doesn't use the same or compatible locking mechanism.

The docs1 say: "On Linux and OSX, a lock has the same semantics..." and later "Lock is not yet implemented on other operating systems, and calling it will return an error.".

Even though windows are not mentioned anywhere, I think they are supported, but I want to be sure. Can you please clarify this and/or fix the docs?

If you prefer me to do a pull request changing only the docs, please let me know.
