Well, if it is a last-ditch default only, than it is even worse that
its compilation causes the whole bash build to fail:
psize.c does not compile at all with the wrong config.h included
on my system, and make stops.

Besides, make also ran psize on my system, although the target system
defines PIPE_BUF in its headers. What are you checking / looking for
for the pipe size?
