This isn't a new issue with your series, but the SIGPIPEs here seem odd.
I don't think you can get SIGPIPE from closing descriptors.

I suspect this is a hold-over from when Lars' original design, where we
actually sent an "exit" message to the filter. It's not hurting
anything, and I don't think it's worth holding up your series for. But
when you are working in this area further, it might be worth cleaning
up.
