There's no particular reason that flock() oughtn't to work on NFS.  If
you happened to be mounted with -o nolock then you wouldn't get the
correct semantics versus lockers on other hosts, but you shouldn't be
getting -EBADF under any circumstances that I can think of.

If you run flock by hand against a file on the same mount, does it work?
If it fails, what does the output from strace look like?
