I found some strange result. Here it is in its most simplified form I
can think of.

This command usually prints a few OKs, as expected:

for ((i=0; i< 100000; i++)); do if [ $RANDOM -eq 0 ]; then echo OK; fi; done

But this other command _never_ prints anything:

for ((i=0; i< 100000; i++)); do if [ $RANDOM -eq 0 ]; then echo OK;
fi; done | cat

Why?
