To make my question more precise:

mkfifo in the do_install() section works. I can see the named pipe in 
build/tmp-glibc/work/*/*/*/ but my bitbake hangs in the  do_package_write_ipk 
and do_package_qa tasks.
Possibly it's because named pipes cannot be packed into an archive? If yes, how 
can I circumvent this?

Regards
Michael
