[issue1716] can't stop "bmake" (without args) in /usr/pkgsrc

[Antonio Huete Jimenez]

Hi,

Well, yes. A lot of bmake process will be spawned and you will have a
bad time to stop them all. What I use to do the to run a ton of
'killall -9 bmake' very fast until there are no processes left. Of
course this is just a rude workaround, but it gives you the chance to
avoid the reboot :P

Cheers,
Antonio Huete
