 you should add a p.WaitForExit()...
 It's a unix issue, when you start a process, the parent process has to
 wait that the child process's finished!

+Mono polls the state of its child processes every few seconds, so if
+you wait a short while after killing xcalc it will be reaped.  Or you
+can make it happen earlier by testing HasExited or calling
+p.WaitForExit().
