OK, this is the problem part.  This looks like a bug in Solaris.  There's
no indication that the kernel sent SIGHUP before changing the behavior of
read and write upon disconnect.

Can you see whether or not the first bash in the chain gets a SIGHUP here?
(Though I can't see why or how sending a SIGHUP to any process other than
the tty's current foreground process group is useful.)
