Comment(by jdemeyer):

 Replying to [comment:23 leif]:
 > Using `eval` twice still behaves different to what you get directly on
 the command line; we could instead use:

 I disagree.  Personally, I wouldn't expect `pipestatus` to behave in a way
 that the first argument influences the second.  For me, the command line
 arguments to `pipestatus` are like "blocks" and should not be split.  In
 other words, I expect
 {{{
 pipestatus "A && B" "C"
 }}}
 to behave like
 {{{
 (A && B) | (C)
 }}}
