[racket] Can places blocked on mzrt semaphores be killed with place-kill?

I've just had a look through the docs, and I don't see an answer to this question. If I have a place that's blocked on an mzrt-semaphore (not a regular one, but a full-on-block-an-OS-thread semaphore), will (place-kill ...) successfully kill the place?

P.S.: Obligatory research: I'm thinking that testing this for myself would involve forcing a core dump, and I still might not get a conclusive answer.
