    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9752?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13766423#comment-13766423 ] 

Robert Parker commented on HADOOP-9752:
---------------------------------------

This appears to be a bug in procps-ng based on http://www.freelists.org/post/procps/PATCH-33-kill-fix-PID-handling, and has been fixed in procps-ng-3.3.4 according to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/coreutils/+bug/1077796.  I will download that version and test.
