Because the "kill" command is builtin to some shells (including bash and
csh) and their versions of "kill" treat the "-l" flag differently. If
you ran the external "/bin/kill -l" command the result would be the same
regardless of the shell, but since these shells have their own "kill"
function you're not running the /bin/kill program normally.
