Comment(by tomeu):

 Might be easy to fix:

 http://trac.xapian.org/browser/trunk/xapian-
 core/backends/flint/flint_lock.cc?annotate=blame&rev=10710#L76

 From #xapian:

 {{{
 Jul 25 11:44:15 <ojwb>  tomeu: actually, I think I might see the issue -
 we always reopen the lock file it appears
 Jul 25 11:45:01 <ojwb>  perhaps one the flags we pass (O_TRUNC) means that
 it fails if the disk is full
 Jul 25 11:45:17 <ojwb>  it's not really useful, since the lock file is
 always zero bytes
 }}}
