OK, I will mark that test case as failing under freebsd5.  It probably
worked under freebsd3,4.  It should work (again) on freebsd6.

The discussion suggests that if one were to use pipe(), we could avoid
the bug.  I suggest that we not make any test suite change to account
for this information. ;-)
