| That actually *is* POSIX (and always has been, for both the kill(1)
| utility and the kill() function)).
Ah yes, you're right, I knew it was for kill(2) but not for kill(1).
They also mandate support for -- though to disambiguate signal numbers
from (negative) process ids - which our kill (/bin/kill - and consequently,
the builtin kill in the shell) does not support, and really should.
