bash crashes on SIGPIPE

[Nikola Kržalić]

If I open a socket to local database:

exec 3<> /dev/tcp/127.0.0.1/6379

In netstat I can see the connection successfully established:
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:42662         127.0.0.1:6379
ESTABLISHED 2269/-bash

And then I proceed to send some data:
echo -e "*2\r\n$3\r\nGET\r\n$6\r\nmy_key\r\n" >&3

At this point the server application (as expected) complains about bad
syntax and terminates the TCP connection, socket goes into CLOSE_WAIT
state:

tcp       45      0 127.0.0.1:42662         127.0.0.1:6379
CLOSE_WAIT  2269/-bash

And if I decide to run echo again, bash simply crashes. Few times it
also terminated on first echo.

Bellow is the strace output. I'm running bash version 4.3.11 on Ubuntu
14.04.2 LTS.
