udev was receiving some events (due to e.g. swapoff) on shutdown that caused it to fork new processes. These then receivde TERM before they could finish, and complained on the console. In principle, I'm worried that, with the right ammonut of bad luck, we could fork off some process at exactly the wrong time which escapes the killall logic. This, by the way, highlights the frailty of the killall stuff.
