Machine is using vinum for mirroring drives	

>Description:

	vinum uses /var/lock (no subdirectory) for its lock files,
	which is inconsistent with other components in the FreeBSD
	environment and non-descriptive (I had to run fstat to
	determine the owning program).

	(This also screws up muscle memory for those us of used to
	looking at FreeBSD logs with tcsh via "cd /var/l<TAB>"

	I would suggest the files should be under /var/db/vinum or
	/var/spool/lock/vinum (or another directort with vinum as
	the last component), but not at the root of the /var
	directory and not without vinum in the name.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Start vinum on a FreeBSD system.

>Fix:

	Move the directory.

 This PR confuses me.  Vinum does not create lock files.  Can you
 explain what makes you think that these files come from Vinum?

fstat reported it.  I thought.  I need new drugs.  Please close as user
error.

(The culprit is SMB.)
