Ack, Java 8 supports the necessary functionality in Process#destroyForcibly; Process#destroy in Java 7 has the wrong doc that says it's forcible and therefore SIGKILL on *nix, but actually it's SIGTERM on such systems. We can check for destroyForcibly being available, then backoff by trying signal with SIGKILL if we have a pid.
