Comment(by hamish):
Perhaps signalProcess and signalProcessGroup should be added to
System.Process.Internals for unix systems, but sadly windows can only send
a SIGINT like event and only to a process group, so they would not be
portable.
I think terminateProcess and interruptProcessGroup make it clear to the
user what is portable (terminating any process and interrupting a process
group).
