I am not sure `raise' is a 100% compatible replacement for `kill', since the latter really delivers a signal, and so is subject to rules regarding blocked signals, while `raise' simlpy calls the signal handler and AFAIK is not specified to observe blocked signals.
So I suggest to use `raise' only on systems, such as MinGW, which lack `kill', not everywhere.
Could you give me a reference for this? POSIX disagrees:
