I really did mean echo to see if <(...) does something useful at all on that
box, but it's interesting to see that other than diff, cat succeeds. So it's
a diff bug on that platform most likely. You could try debugging it with
strace / ltrace / truss (maybe swapping the diff arguments),
$ echo foo > foo
$ strace diff foo <(echo bar)
but I don't think that knowing why this diff is broken would help us. We
didn't rely on <(...) very much, so I've replaced it where we have been using
it.
