+# One could remove the need for dd (used to close the fifo to get uniq to quit
+# early), if head -n1 read stdin char by char. Note uniq | head -c2 doesn't
+# suffice due to the buffering implicit in the pipe. sed currently does read
+# stdin char by char, so we can test with 'sed 1q'. However I'm wary about
