The perldelta for this has several spelling errors. Also I, a native English speaker, cannot understand what it is trying to say: On a Perl built without psuedo-fork (psuedo-fork builds were not affected by this bug), probably since prcess tree kill feature was implemented on Win32, killing a process tree with L<perlfunc/kill> and a negative signal, resulted in kill inverting the returned value. This ment successfully killing 1 process tree PID returned 0, and also passing 2 invalid PID, returned 2. This has been corrected so the documented behavior for return values for kill executes.
