Dealing with binaries

I like the edit-and-merge approach for text files, but for most binaries, there is no sensible way to merge content. I also know that "locking" or "exclusive checkout" is in development right now. But I'm wondering how people are dealing with binary files *now*? In other words, how do you avoid colliding with other teammates?

Maybe there is a technical hack for this or maybe there is just a set of usage conventions that help. Our development team is small so even an imperfect solution might work well enough.
