From -current lockd manpage:

BUGS
     The current implementation provides only the server side of the protocol
     (i.e. clients running other OS types can establish locks on a NetBSD
     fileserver, but there is currently no means for a NetBSD client to estab-
     lish locks).

     The current implementation serialises locks requests that could be
     shared.
