ANOTHER dejagnu problem on cygwin (with work around)

Adam (and others),
I have worked around another dejagnu problem found when running
the libjava testsuite on cygwin. As I mentioned last week, there
are problems killing execution tests that time out. The patch
I posted is no longer adequate. The following worked for me today.
It is (obviously) work in progress.
