[zeromq-dev] SIGPIPE handling

[Pieter Hintjens]

Martin,

Seems in some cases (pub-sub at least but probably other sockets too),
on OS/X and perhaps other BSD systems, 0MQ dies with a SIGPIPE signal.

It's not an assertion, the signal simply appears to kills the process.

Presumably this affects all versions of 0MQ. There's a discussion here:

Is this a known issue at all?
