+C<kill()> is implemented, but doesn't have the semantics of
+C<raise()>, i.e. it doesn't send a signal to the identified process
+like it does on Unix platforms.  Instead it immediately calls
+C<TerminateProcess(process,signal)>.  Thus the signal argument is
+used to set the exit-status of the terminated process.  This behavior
+may change in future.
