Hi everyone,
It's been a while and I've forgotten to submit the solution I've found to avoid
subprocesses stuck with named pipes.
It's more a work around than a true fix, but I didn't manage to find a better
solution.
I haven't checked version 5.1 yet. Did many things changed regarding named
pipes ?
Thanks,
Clément

Subject: [PATCH] process substitution: unlink named pipes when closing shell
This patch forces the removal of named pipes made by process
substitution when the shell is closing, even if the subprocess still
exist.
As the subprocess might be blocked while opening its named pipe,
the parent process is also opening it to release the subprocess.
This avoids having unkilled subprocesses which are waiting for any
inputs from their parent.
