I'm trying to track down a bug in cat of coreutils 6.12. Doing cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | head -n70
under ksh consistently fails with 'cat: write error: Connection reset by peer'. It does not fail when run under bash and it does not fail in current coreutils . It seems that ksh implementing pipes by socketpair(2) is the reason for this failure. Does somebody have a hint how to track this down? When trying to use strace it won't fail and I don't know how to get this to run under gdb. Philipp
