+We have a problem on windows when ProcessStartInfo.UseShellExecute is
+left set to true.  The process is executed via cmd.exe, but the
+process ID and handle returned are of the cmd.exe not the subprocess
+so Kill gets the wrong one.  This works as it should on Linux, btw.
+
+A workaround is to set UseShellExecute=false.
+
+Looking at the output from the windows task manager it seems that the
+ms runtime doesn't use cmd.exe even when UseShellExecute == true.  If
+anyone has any hints about what to use instead here, I'd like to hear
+them.
