Terminating failing tests on Windows

Hello Chen,

I don't use Windows and am not familiar with cygwin either, but I know 
of others who use Windows for their builds and jtreg testing. Perhaps 
they can help if you add some more details like what exact command you 
use to launch the tests and which specific tests are you running. Also 
when you say directories are being locked, what kind of lock do you mean 
and which directories (are those under the JTwork)? Is it the usual 
"this file is being used by some other process" kind of error that you 
notice when this happens?
