There's a typo in patch #3. On non-4.2BSD and non-lockf sites, inews.c
passes two arguments to UNLINK() where it only expects one. Unfortunately,
this has the affect of unlinking the active file rather than the lock file!
My guess is that the LINK() line a few lines above was simply copied. The
fix is simple.
