read -t 0 fails to detect input.

[Bize Ma]

It seems that read -t 0 should detect if there is input from a pipe (and
others).

>From man bash:

>> If  timeout is 0, read returns immediately, without trying to read any
data.
>> The exit status is 0 if input is available on the specified file
 descriptor, non-zero otherwise.

So, it seems that this should print 1:

$ true | read -t 0 var; echo $?
1

And this should print 0 (input available), but it doesn't (most of the
time).

$ echo value | read -t 0 var ; echo $?
1

A little delay seems to get it working:

$ echo value | { read -t 0 var; } ; echo $?
0
