Clarify the example by explicitly importing the fcntl module -- this
avoid being fooled into thinking that fcntl and FCNTL are the same
thing -- they aren't! (fcntl is the extension, FCNTL.py is h2py
output that defines all the constants).
(XXX The example is still weird -- I think there's a more portable way
to do locking now. That's for someone else to fix...)
