The following replacement line for the above uses POSIX 2008-compliant
options for both 'ps' and 'kill' and therefore, assuming Bash (as
opposed to sh) and a version of sleep that supports fractions of a
second (non-POSIX), it should work fine everywhere that is
POSIX-compliant. I've tested it on both Linux and OSX.

  while read -r pid cmd; do [[ $cmd = $sleep_argv0* ]] && kill -9 "$pid"; done < <(ps -opid=,args= -u"$(id -u)") && sleep 0.1

It also turns out to be shorter. Who'd have thought it!?
