I've done a bit of search and couldn't find much on this.

However when I build some ports, I often get the following:

===>   gdm2-2.6.0.0 depends on shared library: X11.6grep: writing
output: Broken pipe
 - found
===>   gdm2-2.6.0.0 depends on shared library: esd.2 - found
===>   gdm2-2.6.0.0 depends on shared library: glib-2.0.400 - found
===>   gdm2-2.6.0.0 depends on shared library: atk-1.0.600grep: writing
output: Broken pipe
 - found
===>   gdm2-2.6.0.0 depends on shared library: pango-1.0.399grep:
writing output: Broken pipe

All this broken pipe business... I'm guessing it can't be doing good
things..

This is on 5.2.1-p3 box...

Any thoughts?
