The buildbot invokes itself a "reaper" procedure if the current build
step doesn't produce any output for some period of time (I think 2000s).
This would be the place where actions should be added, IMO.

For clicking crash dialogs, I wonder whether running the processes in
their own window station (CreateWindowStation) would help: I would hope
that the dialogs get forcefully closed when the window station get
closed.
