For further reference, the simple solution is always the best one.
I now have the following:

	COUNT=0
	for URL in `grep "^https" ${INFILE}`; do
		process ${URL}
		if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
			COUNT=`expr ${COUNT} + 1`
		fi
	done
	echo "URLs processed: ${COUNT}"

There now is no piping step (and therefore no subshell) involved.
This works and can be easily extended (more preprocessing from
the input list file).

I have no idea why I didn't think of this in the first place... :-)
