i've gotten more or less the same report in Gentoo:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/447810
the simple test case is:
$ cat test.sh
#!/bin/bash
while :; do
(:)& (:)& (:)& (:)& (:)& (:)& (:)& (:)& (:)& (:)&
while read x ; do : ; done < <(echo foo)
done
execute `./test.sh` and we see failures pretty much all the time.
I did some looking around, and the script does result in open returning
- -1/EINTR, even if SIGCHLD is installed with SA_RESTART, on FreeBSD and
Mac OS X. It doesn't happen on RHEL 5. I may test Solaris 11 later.
I did find a reference to the Linux kernel patch that makes this work:

There is similar problem with ioctl() syscall in read.
Consider following script:
#!/bin/bash
( while :; do kill -CHLD $$ 2>&- || break; done ) &
while :; do
read -p 1 -t 0.01 -d ' '
done
On my Fedora it is reporting many
/tmp/test.sh: line 4: read: error setting terminal attributes:
Interrupted system call
Hold down Enter key and when you are lucky you'll end up with SIGABRT.
Definitely it's a bug in kernel, but I'm not sure if there is also
something wrong in bash.
