Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but the following will make bash crash.
terminal 2: $ mkfifo test $ while true; do echo foo && sleep 1; done > test terminal 1: $ <test cat wait for a few "foo"s to be printed and then kill with ctrl-c terminal 2 will read: Warning: Program '/bin/bash' crashed. computer info: I use up to date Archlinux $ bash --version GNU bash, version 4.1.7(2)-release (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu) $ uname -a Linux J 2.6.33-ice #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed May 12 21:52:42 PDT 2010 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T8300 @ 2.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux Thanks
