In rare cases kill/cleanup operations in tests fail. Retry these
operations with a timeout to make the test less flaky.

Should there be a sleep in that retry_until_success loop so that it doesn't 
spin sending signals to p4d?
Agreed. I will add a sleep in the next roll!



Do we need to worry about the time offset being updated (e.g. NTP) while this 
is running?
Interesting question! I would consider this an edge case but I can see how it 
could happen.
Do you see a way to handle that in an easy way?


You want to somehow call clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC). That's not in python until 3.3. Writing a C program seems like overkill but could be a solution if this becomes a problem.
