I've recently started asking about this too.  I figured that it was only
my setup (I'm running Linux/68k), but other people have also said that
there is problems with similar setups to yours.  

Unfortunately, I have gotten an answer as yet.  (So I modified the source
to ignore 'broken pipe" errors and it works like a charm.  B-))

If ya get a solution, please let me know 'cause mine isn't really
acceptable.  B-)
