The trick works for "console" objects, too, which in win32 are even less agreeable than pipes. (In case your life wasn't disgusting enough already today :)) Alternatively, you could use something like socketpair() instead of a pipe for this purpose. Naturally, Win32 helps you out here by somehow forgetting to include socketpair() in winsock, although it's sort of easy to emulate.
