[sv-bc] Is 'kill' a task or function

Hi,
There is a method inside 'process' class called 'kill'. The definition of 'kill' is given different in two places.
LRM section 11.9 (page no. 150)
class process;
enum state { FINISHED, RUNNING, WAITING, SUSPENDED, KILLED };
static function process self();
function state status();
function void kill(); // Here it is a void function
task await();
function void suspend();
task resume();
endclass

Now in Annex C (page no. 554) it is written as:
class process;
enum state { FINISHED, RUNNING, WAITING, SUSPENDED, KILLED };
static function process self();
function state status();
task kill(); // Here it is a task
task await();
task suspend();
task resume();
endclass

Which definition is correct?
