Subject: Occasional test failures in t/400-flockfiles-forks.t
See http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=File-Lock-Multi%201.01 for a fail/pass overview and http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/02c95068-7084-11e4-85ec-6d02e0bfc7aa for a sample fail report. Probably some kind of race condition or timing problems, but I don't see reason...

I'm guessing that if these test servers are under *extremely* heavy load, some of those `sleep(1)` statements could be taking 2.1 seconds or longer to complete, especially if the servers running the tests are digging into swap memory. I'll see if I can organize this a bit better so that can't happen.
