So, we have (sed X | sed Y | sed Z), and sed X is sleeping waiting
for its write to finish, while sed Y is sleeping waiting for its
read to finish.  I'm not sure, but this would appear to be
a kernel bug in Solaris 11.

It is suspicious that the 0xFEF59FD8 differs so markedly from the
0x08092254, and that the 1024 differs from the 5120; I wonder why
that is?  sed Y and sed Z are doing essentially the same thing:
waiting for stdin at startup.

Do you get the same problem with the /usr/bin/sed?
