 Replying to [comment:5 igloo]:

 > Do we have consensus that silently exiting successfully is the right
 thing to do if we get a SIGPIPE?

 Perhaps we should only exit silenty if the EPIPE was received for `stdin`
 or `stdout`?  One problem we had with the silent `SIGPIPE` was that it
 happened for closed sockets, which confused people regularly.
