?(eval):kill:2: not enough arguments
# Regression tests: `kill ''` should not result in `kill 0`.
+#
+# We use SIGURG where an explicit sigspec can be provided as:
+#
+# 1. By default it's non-terminal, so even if we regress, we won't kill the
+# test runner and other processes in the process group since we'll stop
+# running this test before we get to the plain kill (and thus SIGTERM)
+# cases;
+# 2. It's also unlikely to be sent for any other reason during the process
+# lifetime, so the test shouldn't be flaky.
