A search mentiones it in the context of multi-threaded SISCtus, but
AFAIK that never became an official version. Otherwise I only expect it
in the context of processes. There you find kill/2 and process_kill/1,2
in SWI-Prolog.  Kill/2 is part of the Unix library and only available
on Unix systems.

Some more context may make clear what this kill is supposed to do ...
