[bug #62840] make --version in pipe return SIGPIPE

[Martin Dorey]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #62840 (project make):

Just for completeness or academic interest, then, this makes it happen
reliably for me:


set -o pipefail; { ruby -we '$stdout.write("x" * 4096)'; make --version; } |
head -n1; echo $?


That behaved the same all the way back to make-3.81.  This was the first
command I found that behaved like make --version:


set -o pipefail; { ruby -we '$stdout.write("x" * 4096)'; tar --help; } | head
-n1; echo $?
