Hi All,

When a group is aborted which has clients that use savepnpc, which signal is
used to kill any pending savepnpc scripts?

I know it's not 1, 2, 9, or 15 since my savepnpc catches those to do some
clean-up work.  But when a group is aborted the clean-up doesn't occur.

Thanks,
        /\/elson
