This must be coming from the fact win32 is not fully posix compatible ;)
One fix would be to install <insert your favourite open source or
commerce unix here>. ;)

May be, 

signal.SIGHUP=signal.SIGKILL 

somewhere up might also work.

there was a complicated option, mentioned deep in the docs to specify 
storage class together with options to select the Data.fs for
filestorage.
