Package: posh
Version: 0.5.5
Severity: minor

As per
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/utilities/kill.html,
the syntax for kill is 

   SYNOPSIS

1 kill -s signal_name pid ...

2 kill -l [exit_status]

3 ^[XSI] [Option Start] kill [-signal_name] pid ...

4 kill [-signal_number] pid ...

posh recognises 1, 2 which is fine.

But if posh was really pedantic, it should not accept
kill -s signal_number pid.
