By that you mean file-locked?  It only signals file-locked if it first
prompts the user, which is what we want to avoid.  If noninteractive=t,
then it just signals error:

(if noninteractive (error "Cannot resolve lock conflict in batch mode"))

Possibly we should just change that to signal file-locked too.
