The Athena discuss source tree opens for RDWR, presumably due to some
portability issue with needing to open for read-write while locking
directories.  I don't know what platform lets you open directories
read-write, though.

I've fixed the code base and will rebuild for the 1.1 install shortly.
I'll talk to Craig about the change.
