Comment:

 This is not fixed in 0.8.5.

 Some options are listed in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1230669
 /subprocess-deleting-child-processes-in-windows/10830753#10830753.

 I recommend just calling {{{taskkill.exe}}}, as it works realiably on
 windows xp and up.

 Will see if I can provide a patch.
