Thanks to everyone for their suggestions, however none of them will do what I need. Using either AppleScript's quit of the shell's kill (with or without -9) works fine if you have started the screen saver by pushing the mouse into the specified corner. If the screen saver has come on after it's set time, both these methods stop the current screen saver process but another one is immediately started.

What is the parent process ID of the new process that starts (try ps -ajx)? Is it something else you can reasonably kill, so it will not spawn further savers?

As an aside, I am wondering if these behaviours are related to a problem I have where my Powerbook will occasionally refuse to wake properly - the disk sounds are all as usual but the screen never clears and the only resort is the reset button.
