In GNU Emacs 19.26.1 (sparc-sun-sunos4.1.3, X toolkit) of Tue Sep 13 1994 on binki

I've just built and installed 19.26.1, and have noticed that after
exiting an emacs session with C-x C-c or by selecting Exit Emacs from
the file menu, emacs _appears_ to exit just fine.  However, ps reveals
that there's still a process named emacs running.  Neither plain kill
nor kill -HUP will dispel this zombie process.  A kill -9 is required.
