/* NAME
/*	fifo_rdonly_bug 1
/* SUMMARY
/*	fifo server test program
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	fifo_rdonly_bug
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	fifo_rdonly_bug creates a FIFO and opens it read only. It
/*	then opens the FIFO for writing, writes one byte, and closes
/*	the writing end. On Linux Redhat 4.2 and 5.0, and HP-UX 9.05
/*	and 10.20, select() will report that the FIFO remains readable
/*	even after multiple read operations.
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/*	Problems are reported to the standard error stream.
/* LICENSE
/* .ad
/* .fi
/*	The Secure Mailer license must be distributed with this software.
