    A better timeout.  This one starts a new session for the child
    process, and attempts to kill the entire group when the time expires
    (previously we only killed the direct child, if the child itself had
    spawned more processes these would continue to run).
    
    The new scheme is only for Unix, presumably we have to do something
    different on Windows.
    
    Code partly from Ian Lynagh.
