It does on my computer:
554 ioctl(255, TIOCSPGRP, [554]) = 0
553 execve("/usr/bin/wc", ["wc", "-l"], 0x55706d7bac10 /* 30 vars */
<unfinished ...>
554 +++ exited with 1 +++
But it doesn't change the process group ID of `wc' to its PID, so it
ends up in the foreground process group with bash. See:
$ cat <(bash -c 'enable setpgid; setpgid $$ $$; wc -l') <bk
bash: bk: No such file or directory
$ wc: 'standard input': Input/output error
$
