[Buildbot-devel] Failed Command on Slave Causes Unkillable Process

By accident, I sent a None Command to the slave and got the following 
reaction by the slave.  It appears that the command is still in some 
queue (i don't understand the internals, yet, sorry).  Then when it 
does some cleanup (ie self.command.interrupt()), it tries to kill it; 
but, a process never existed.

To fix, I think kill() in bot.py needs to be modified to take in account 
self.process == None and deal with it, letting it continue without 
consequence.

Current workaround: restart slave process.

thanks,
