`pytest-relaxed` causes `pytest-xdist` testing to fail

[mtelka]

I tried to run tests for pytest-xdist with pytest-relaxed installed and disabled using -p no:relaxed set in PYTEST_ADDOPTS environment variable. I noticed that with this setup the pytest-xdist testing fails:

        if not hasattr(os, "kill"):
            pytest.skip("no os.kill")

        p1 = pytester.makepyfile(
