Description

This patch adds handling of borrowed Flex licenses.

The following fixes are also included if you don't already
have patch 297:

When running lmstat takes a lot of time (many and/or
heave license files) occasionally a licpoll would not 
terminate after it's processing time (one hour)was finished. 
After the first instance experienced this problem, all
consecutive instances would also "hang". This fixes 
this problem.

The patch also replaces the intra process locking mechanism
with thread mutex's instead of semaphores.
