I think the size of a FIFO is supposed to always be zero
(http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0809.1/0996.html says
"st_size has no meaning except for regular files and symlinks." in
response to a similar question), though a quick web search turned up no
formal documentation. Therefore, I am marking this invalid. If I'm
wrong, please set status back to New.
** Changed in: coreutils (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Invalid

The size of a named pipe created by mknod or mkfifo always zero.
