I can't find where we talked about this, maybe just IRC, but that's there (perhaps poorly) as a special case. 0 is 0, but signal.CTRL_C_EVENT is also 0. We try the signal version first then fall back to TerminateProcess. I was just looking at this myself and it's not great. I actually wish we could change what signal.CTRL_C_EVENT means, or maybe add a flag to determine if the second parameter is supposed to be a return code or a signal? I'm open to anything.
