Hmmm... I guess kill is pretty much dead:
 
shell/iX> kill -s SIGHUP 6619582
kill: "SIGHUP" not a valid signal
kill: Usage: kill -l [status]
        kill [-s SIGNAL] job ...
shell/iX> kill -s sighup 6619582
kill: "sighup" not a valid signal
kill: Usage: kill -l [status]
        kill [-s SIGNAL] job ...
shell/iX>kill -1 6619582
kill: 6619582: Operation not permitted
 
The man page says signal names are permitted.  And I can't signal a
process even as manager.sys (case above).  What's the deal?
