kill-old-processes script is run as part of buildbot steps in most of the webkit ios and mac builders. After running this script, the clipboard behaves very strangely, we can't copy anything from safari to terminal. Clipboard works between safari to safari, and terminal to terminal, however it doesn't work if we want to copy-paste between safari and terminal. It behaves as if both the application have separate clipboard. Steps to reproduce: run OpenSource/Tools/BuildSlaveSupport/kill-old-processes OR run this command in terminal: "killall -9 -v -m pboard" and restart safari

Created attachment 267628 [details] Proposed patch We do not need to kill pboard anymore. It was a workaround for very old issue which probably do not exist anymore.
