Comment 32 for bug 8678

How will it break the typing break stuff? I looked around for anything which
would do something with the "child-exited" signal, and didn't find any. That
code isn't used outside of gnome-settings-daemon itself. It looked like this
code was cut-and-pasted from elsewhere and this bit wasn't really applicable.

The pipe isn't breaking, as far as I saw. It's simply blocking on write, and
nothing ever read from it.
