LVM2-2.03.23

[Bruce Dubbs]

New point version.

[Xi Ruoyao]

The configure script contains:

# Select default system locking dir, prefer /run/lock over /var/lock
DEFAULT_SYS_LOCK_DIR="$RUN_DIR/lock"
test -d "$DEFAULT_SYS_LOCK_DIR" || DEFAULT_SYS_LOCK_DIR="/var/lock"

So it seems the sed command to set locking_dir is not needed.
