Comment (by philippem):

 without fully understanding the reactor timeout (we see this code being
 executed in the log)

 it looks like

 a) posix version does a kill of the process group, in addition to killing
 the process. this would cleanup most scenarios where the slave step
 forks()
 b) the windows version just does win32 TerminateProcess. More
 functionality would be required to terminate any child processes created
 by the slave step.  I don't think there is a single API for this (or even
 if win32 has an equivalent process model)
