Comment (by gp1308):

 Comment from olly in #337:

 >Handling this is probably actually simpler for the remote database case -
 at least in >the TCP case that already knows which fds are in use for
 remote databases (see the >"pid_to_fd" array in xapian-
 core/tests/harness/backendmanager_remotetcp.cc).

 Initially, I thought pid_to_fd will contain the pid of the server for the
 entire duration of test run, but later found out it gets cleaned up once
 child signals the parent.

 I am thinking to add a member to `BackendManagerRemote` class to store the
 `pid` of the remote server. It can be used later by the `kill()` method.

 Where should these tests go(api_closedb.cc or other)?
