(_,h,e,_) <- runInteractiveCommand "script params"

where clearStderr is one of:

1. hClose e
2. hGetContents e >>= evaluate . last
3. forkIO (hGetContents e >>= evaluate . last >> return ())

Debian testing. What happens on Windows?

PIPE_MAX is only 512 on (older?) Solaris. It's fairly large on Linux and possibly OSX. No clue about Windows.
