EAGAIN has the same value as EWOULDBLOCK, which is documented in the man page.
flock() comes from BSD, where the EWOULDBLOCK error is documented.

strace() can't tell the difference between the symbolic names EAGAIN and
EWOULDBLOCK because it only knows about error numbers.

The errno(3) man page mentions that EGAIN and EWOULDBLOCK may have the same
value.
