We've been through that problem though.... How about the same
place as the PID file?

The PID file is created by the server when it's still root, ja? Whereas the
serialized accept is done between competing children, ja? If so the children
couldn't create a lock file in the same place where the PID file is created, if
we follow our own advice about making the logfile directory (where the PID file
is created by default, and should probably stay) 700.
