>Description:
New killall(1) is C-program that has replaced old perl-script.
It has a bug: sometimes it says "No matching processes belonging to you were found"
when user tries to kill any root-owned SUID-binary started by this
user. However, kill(1) still works.
>How-To-Repeat:
I discovered this bug while connecting to ISP using pppd using command
like 'pppd call isp' and then tried to disconnect using 'killall pppd'.
killall refused to work. This is 100% repeatable.
However, kill did a job.

>Fix:
Unknown for me
