I think it is portable, but it doesn't matter because the tests only run 
on Windows under Cygwin, and we have kill(1) there.

No toes damaged, just want to avoid duplication of effort :-)

I don't think there's much point developing on trunk at the moment, since 
chris/merge is getting more testing and is ultimately the branch which 
will become 0.11. Anything added to trunk but not to chris/merge risks 
being lost in the 0.11 release, or less well tested.

Cheers, Chris.
