File 0035-PID-2-to-9-for-kill-too.patch of Package procps.4784

Subject: [PATCH] PID -2 to -9 for kill too

Commit 4359cf069819d9fb53493933e00d9af5c37bced5 restored kill's ability
to kill PID -1. This however left PIDs -2 to -9 (or rather process
groups 2 to 9) still having this problem. The check is now generically
looking for a digit and parses it correctly.
