[Buildbot-devel] Cygwin build slaves and cancelling builds

I'm happily running cygwin build slaves which fire up visual c++ in
various ways to build things.  All is well.... until I want to cancel
a build.

I suspect I need to wrap my jobs with a signal handler that
runs pskill on kill, a la
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-05/msg00524.html
but I haven't tried it yet.  (Using & inside shell scripts seems
a bit fragile, too.)

Has anybody else engaged in such foolishness with success?
