Nothing in MOL has changed with respect to volume locks.
The error message above indicates that the volume is locked by an
advisory lock [flock()]. Perhaps you have a stale mol process
that owns that lock? The file (well device, in this case) should
be unlocked automatically if the process owning the lock
is terminated.
