|You will have to do something like

|kill `ps -ax | grep newroot | sed -e '^[0-9]*'`
Ok. I thought I'd at least try to use the system version, but sounds like
it's just not as flexible as killall's on other systems.
Here's the shell script I settled on to override the default /usr/bin/killall:
ps -x | grep "$1" | egrep -v "grep|$0" | awk '{print $1;}'
Thanks for the help.
