I was aware of pipefail when I wrote that patch.  However, I have zero 
interest in a "solution" which works on bash, but fails on other shells.  

That is like allowing a precious few to overstep some serious line (and 
commuting them), but severely punish all others.  And that's wrong.  And 
to allow it to happen is wrong, too.

Ciao,
