Yea, give that a shot.  Create it as root:

    cd /var
    su
    mkdir lock
    chmod 1775 lock
    exit # (from root)

The reason for the chmod command is that the sticky bit should be
set.  At least that's how it is on my Linux box here:

    drwxrwxr-t  5 root  uucp  4096 2008-04-09 16:06 lock
