The referenced commits enavled both pkill and kill to send an integer to
the killed or signalled process. The test_process now will report on the
integer if sent and the testsuite changes take advantage of this
new feature.
Another process make/destroy set had to be made as using spawn
instead of exec changes both the SID and TTY for the underlying
process, making other tests fail.
