I had an issue when reloading bspwm would result in multiple instances of back4.sh running and the wallpaper would get choppy with weird artifacts.

The killall command wasn't working, resulting in 'back4.sh: no process found'.

Adding 'flock -n /var/lock/back4.lock /usr/bin/back4.sh auto /PATH/TO/FILE' to bspwmrc solved the issue.
