Seems this was brought up before (linked from workers/22180); Bart had some
thoughts about it but no action was taken:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=346162

Anyway, as a work-around one can do this:

  kill ${${jobstates#*:*:}%=*}

Or in a script it's probably sufficient most of the time to kill the shell's
entire process group (maybe `-HUP` would be a little nicer):

  kill 0
