Thanks to all who have responded on my question regarding the 5spd tranny
mainshaft locknut.

Here's a picture of the beastie:

No tabs to flatten or anything like that, it must just be on there TIGHT!  The
shiny part on the locknut is where my crescent wrench slipped off.  I have two
18" adjustable wrenches and two 3' sections of steel pipe for breaker bars.  I
looked closely at the threads and they appear to be right-hand standard
threads.  I'll give it another try...

Thanks again.
