Hi Linus,

pipeline is implemented with piped-process, which is implemented with
scm_start_child, which does not use the shell. In your pipeline you can
use a shell explicitly if you wanted to. I do not think I should follow
the asterisk convention in procedure naming for pipeline. What do you
think?
