[Box Backup-dev] Question about bbstored pid

I'm trying to extend the test suite to ensure that all bbstored
processes are killed off if they haven't terminated at the end of the
test.
When I './runtest.pl backupstore debug', I see a bbstored.pid file
created in debug/test/backupstore/testfiles/bbstored.pid, but 'pgrep
bbstored' shows more than one process (the main bbstored, a housekeeping
process and any client connections).
Are the other processes just forks of what's in bbstored.pid, and would
just killing off that process kill all others?
Thanks,
James
