No, sigkill will just cause the watchdog to commit suicide:

                if (waitpid(child, &status, 0) <= 0)
                        continue;
   
                if (WIFEXITED(status))
                        exit(WEXITSTATUS(status));
   
                if (WIFSIGNALED(status)) {
                        if (WTERMSIG(status) == SIGKILL) {
                                clulog(LOG_CRIT, "Watchdog: Daemon
killed, exiting\n");
                                raise(SIGKILL);


Use something like SIGSEGV (e.g. to simulate a crash) and the
nanny/watchdog process should reboot the node.
