No user will be able to write to rpc_pipefs, so the filesystem itself is 555. We should change this in the nfs-utils package so that its installed as 555. If you recall, the same thing happened with /sys being mounted as 555 as of kernel 3.4: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=c56d8a73 d
