commit 446fe9eecd removes the AC_DEFINE for
SERVER_LOCK and conditional compilation checking it, making it always on
everywhere, except in os/utils.c where code is left under SERVER_LOCK, which
now never gets built, making the '-nolock' option non-functional...
This seems to have been broken since Xserver 1.7.0, but this option is
actually of some slight use on cygwin, as if /tmp resides on a FAT filesystem
(yes, I know...), hard links aren't supported.

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.
