Fix for some "[ $? -eq 1 ]" tests

Hi,

In SVN commit 810611, the following shell pattern have used a few times in "catalina.sh":

    kill -0 $pid
    if [ $? -eq 1 ]; then
       ... OK, the process is dead ...
    fi

On HP-UX (11.11 here), this does not work as expected, because kill ("/usr/bin/kill" actually, it's not shell a built-in) returns 2 when the PID doesn't exist, and not 1 as assumed above.
It would be better to rewrite these tests like this :

   ...
   if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then 
      ...

A patch follows (made against 6.0.24).
