check-code: warn to use killdaemons instead of kill `cat PIDFILE`

We have a bunch of tests that still use

    kill `cat hg.pid`

or worse,

    kill `cat hg.pid`; while kill -0 `cat hg.pid`; sleep 0; done

Cleaning these up to use tests/killdaemons.py is non-trivial, so for now
we just add a warning.

to build a new macosx binary package:

install macpython from http://www.python.org/download/mac

install py2app from http://pythonmac.org/packages/

make sure /usr/local/bin is in your path

run bdist_mpkg in top-level hg directory

find packaged stuff in dist directory
