Since Spawn blocks until the process completes execution, and
does not return a Process_ID, it makes no sense to provide a
mechanism to kill such a process.

Instead, you should use the Non_Blocking_Spawn function, and
then use a Pragma_Import of kill to send whatever signal to
the Process_ID returned by the Non_Blocking_Spawn call.
