tweaks: take just one shot at reading the lock file, and correct a type

Don't bother looping until the 1024 bytes are read.  Writing the lock
file takes just one shot too, and that is more important to get right.

Also, correct the type for the result of read(), so that -1 doesn't
get turned into a positive number, which would mean that any error
would get ignored.
