Log:
Remove invalid remark about pipes.
The stat structures returned on pipes seems to contain all the
information required by POSIX. Especially the wording "and thus to a
pipe" makes little sense, because it seems to imply a certain
relationship between sockets and pipes that simply isn't there.
No objection to the change; however, some historical commentary: the
relationship used to be there, as pipes were contructed from pairs of UNIX
domain sockets, as remained the case with fifos until quite recently.
