Well, I can't figure out how Word is able to detect this situation in 2 or 0
seconds, when in my own testing with StgOpenStorage it takes 20 seconds to
fail, and Word doesn't seem to be doing anything special.

I guess I can add the 20 second timeout (which I suspect will mean a 40 second
hang in Word, because that's what happens in Word on Windows if I set a
read-only lock for the entire file), or I can use read locks to test for this
situation in a way that should be compatible with Windows but that I know isn't
what Windows does.

I guess I'll try both and see what happens.
