Hi

ignores SIGPIPE which breaks the (HA)moniter script of the
customer, I supose the change

/* just reports a crash */
static void signal_handler(int signo){
- if(signo==SIGPIPE) _exit(0); /* "ps | head" will cause this */
+ if(signo==SIGPIPE){
+ signal(signo, SIG_DFL);
+ kill(getpid(), signo);
+ return;
+ }
/* fprintf() is not reentrant, but we _exit() anyway */
fprintf(stderr,
"\n\n"
... that will raise the signal and this change does help.
