It's not a filed bug.  We never implemented named pipes (or block or
character devices, or unix domain sockets, which I think SVr4 doesn't do),
since the core OS doesn't deliver any.

If this is actually necessary, then we'll have to implement this mightly
quickly, or at least catch UnknownActionErrors in the code that would be
presented with unknown actions (which is probably a good idea anyway).
