I haven't actually verified that as such. The main gripe I had at the
time wasn't the signalling as such but that it was complaining when
the process wasn't running. Skipping the signalling doesn't help much
if it still complains and returns with an error code - though I guess
it's subject to some debate how exactly it *should* behave with the -f
flag.
Thanks for giving this issue attention at all :)
