Comment(by simonmar):

 Would you like us to try opening the file in blocking mode if non-blocking
 mode fails?  We could certainly do that, but I can't remember all the
 details of the interaction between non-blocking mode and FIFOs, so I can't
 be sure that it wouldn't have any strange consequences.
