Ahhh yes. I once brought a DG/UX box down with that. It has different
semantics to the Linux killall (it kills every process on the machine,
rather than those matching the arguments). However, although it doesn't
take any arguments under DG/UX, it will silently ignore any you provide,
instead of giving a syntax error. Nice!  Fortunately it was nothing
important... only a server used by ~30000 users throughout Europe!

Ooops :-)
