FWIW:

pkill was originally in usr.bin, because it was in usr.bin in other
BSD projects (particularly NetBSD, where it came from).  I thought some
kind of marker had been left behind in usr.bin after it was moved, just
because people from other projects might look for it there.  But I guess
that did not happen.
