[Serge Renfer, asking about Data.fs.lock]

Data.fs.lock is created when a FileStorage is opened _except_ in
read_only mode, and should exist the entire time from then until a
FileStorage is closed.  That's normal.  Its only purpose is to prevent
more than one process (or thread) from opening a FileStorage in write
mode simultaneously.  It's not the source of your problems, and you
should not delete it while Zope is running.
