pvm_kill sends a terminate (SIGTERM) signal to the PVM process
18
In the case of multiprocessors the terminate signal is replaced with a
19
host dependent method for killing a process. If pvm_kill is successful,
22
can be checked to determine the status for each process. Values less than
23
zero indicate an error, while zero values indicate a success.

pvm_kill is not designed to kill the calling process. To kill yourself in

C call pvm_exit() followed by quit().
