Summary:  closing the read end of a pipe is asynchronous

Original Submission:  The attached test program does not trigger SIGPIPE 
reliably, because closing the read end of the pipe happens asynchronously.  The 
write can succeed because the read end might not have been closed yet.

This makes the perl test suite fail.
