On an Apollo cluster, when a file is opened on one machine it is locked
from all other machines.  Umoria opens the high score file when a player
starts the game and doesn't close it until he quits or saves; this keeps
people on other machines from playing.

Fortunately, the code to deal with this already exists (since there
are many machines that behave in a similar manner).  A diff that should
take care of this problem follows.

Note that umoria must run as setuid 'root', or the score file must
be world writeable.  Setuid 'games' isn't good enough because umoria
writes save files into the user's home directory.
