Hi Joel,

the last comment of the PR lists a solution that works on Linux (well,
at least for the test-case, at this point I can't remember whether I
tested it on the entire testsuite): using kill.

But I'm not sure whether that's available on other OSes.

I got distracted by other things, I'll try to find time to get back to
this PR.

Thanks,
- Tom
