Ahh!  I knew I'd get an answer eventually.  ;-)  Thank you!

But how did you know to use _get_osfhandle()?  (Or did someone else write that?)

Incidentally, _locking(_get_osfhandle(fd), LK_LOCK, 1) still fails, so I
still don't know what sort of value it's expecting for the file handle. I'd
look at the MingW32 C runtime library source, but I can't find it, and
www.mingw.org is down, but never mind all that, I don't need to get
_locking() to work any more!

Regards
Andrew
