No.  The procedure is

1) svc -d
-either-
2a) wait for qmail-send to exit (could take hours):
        while testfilelock /var/run/qmail/lock
        do sleep 60
        done
-or-
2b) do a ps to find any qmail-remote processes, and manually kill them
3) svc -u

I think svc should send signals to an entire process group, not 
just to the child it is controlling.
