I would assume the process is unkillable due to some kernel hang.
killall5 simply call the kill(2) system call to signal processes to
die.

Your analysis make me believe sendsigs is correct, and the problem is
between the kernel and the package with the process that fail to die,
and this report should be reassigned elsewhere.

Happy hacking,
