bash-debug uses system command pkill to cleanup processes for debugging.

If bash-debug detects that the path to pkill is /usr/local/bin/pkill, /usr/bin/pkill (included since Mac OS X 10.8) will be used instead. /usr/local/bin/pkill is probably provided by proctools, installed via Homebrew or MacPorts, causing crash of vscode due to its bug.

If you really want to use /usr/local/bin/pkill, specify it explicitly in launch.json: pathPkill: "/usr/local/bin/pkill
