killing the immortals

Some tasks can't be killed, like the ones that are accessing a mount that's dead. That's a problem when you've lost contact with an NFS server, as you're left with a bunch of processes that are hanging there. Any admin knows of this issue, so i thought i'd post something about the fact that for NFS, it's about to be "fixed" (it's not really a bug, it's meant that way for several reasons, but i'd argue that most of the time we do want to kill it).
