Priority:  Normal             |   Component:  BroControl
 Version:  1.5.2-devel (svn)  |    Keywords:

Comment(by seth):

 This seems to just be a race condition problem that likely isn't worth
 fixing.  The reason it isn't being handled in the try block correctly is
 that the 'except' catches IOError but the lockfile missing is an OSError.
