  I did this once for majordomo 1.6x. You probably want to add some
sort of security if you haven't already.

  The biggest problem that I ran into was locking /etc/aliases
so majordomo could update it. The lock function wants to create a lock
file in the directory the file exists in. In the case of aliases,
this isn't possible. I think that locking function should use one
lock directory for all file locks, but that is a different issue.
