--- Comment #2 from Rex Dieter <rdieter at math.unl.edu> ---
This?

"We have received reports of implementations of both Windows network
filesystems and NFS in which locking was subtly broken. We can not verify these
reports, but as locking is difficult to get right on a network filesystem we
have no reason to doubt them. You are advised to avoid using SQLite on a
network filesystem in the first place, since performance will be slow. But if
you must use a network filesystem to store SQLite database files, consider
using a secondary locking mechanism to prevent simultaneous writes to the same
database even if the native filesystem locking mechanism malfunctions."

doesn't exactly say it can't work, just that it's unreliable in some nfs
implementations.  am I missing something?
