This is intentional change in behavior to improve security which I
believe was introduced in 19.10. To restore the older behavior, create
`/etc/sysctl.d/protect-links.conf` with the contents:

fs.protected_fifos = 0


Then restart procps:

sudo systemctl restart procps.service


To verify run:

$ sudo sysctl fs.protected_fifos
fs.protected_fifos = 0
