[net.bugs.4bsd] Broken Pipes When Writing To Stopped Processes

jdd@allegra.UUCP (07/26/83)

We all know that a process receives a SIGPIPE signal if it writes to a pipe
which no process can read from.  But did you know that it can \also/ get a
SIGPIPE if there \is/ such a process but it is \stopped/?
