What is the mechanism for killing a redirector process?

Hi all,

I've written a redirector in C and everything works fine except that if I
kill the Squid process I'm left with redirectors running. As far as I can
tell, Squid doesn't pass on the kill signal to the redirectors, although
HUP signals are passed on. Squid appears to kill the dnsserver processes by
sending the string "$shutdown", but no such string is passed to the
redirector processes. Can anyone shed some light on the subject?

Cheers,
Simon.
