Some child processes don't terminate when Emacs kills them (e.g. Tor).
So, trying to kill them after restarting Emacs makes those processes
zombie.  So I have to kill Emacs to remove those zombies.  Any thoughts?

What does this issue have to do with emacs-devel?

I recommend you send such reports via `M-x report-emacs-bug`.

Because Emacs is the parent process.

This list is for discussing Emacs development, not just anything
related to Emacs.  If you think there's a bug in Emacs, please report
that with report-emacs-bug; if you want to ask a question regarding
Emacs usage, please post to help-gnu-emacs.
