How do I clear a lock that has been left in a database as a result of
doing CTL-C when running VACUUM as a metacommand under psql.

Exact screen contents (after logging in thru psql) are

mfgpro=> vacuum;
ERROR: can't create lock file -- another vacuum cleaner running?

Any and all advice/suggestions welcome and appreciated.
