Comment(by leif):

 Replying to [comment:22 jdemeyer]:
 > Leif: what do you think of this alternative patch?  I've tested that it
 behaves the same as `set -o pipefail`.

 Better. :)

 Using `eval` twice still behaves different to what you get directly on the
 command line; we could instead use:
 {{{
 #!sh
 eval "$1 | $2 ; ecs=(\${PIPESTATUS[*]})"

 if [ ${ecs[1]} -ne 0 ]; then
     exit ${ecs[1]}
 else
     exit ${ecs[0]}
 fi
 }}}

 The comment ''"Like this, ..."'' is a bit misleading, as we exactly fix
 that undesired behavior with `pipestatus`.
