Sure - if taskkill works and is reliable now. I guess few users are
aware of taskkill. It should probably be mentioned in hg help serve -
together with kill for unix-ish systems.
Still, it would also be nice to have a cross platform way to terminate
the daemon we started. Something that not only sent the signal, but also
waited for the process to actually terminate...
