Do you have a simple test case which demonstrates this?  I wrote the
below and piped it into cat and it works as expected.  "foo" is printed,
there is a five second pause, and "bar is printed.

cgf

#include <stdio.h>
int
main (int argc, char **argv)
{
  setvbuf(stdout, NULL, _IOLBF, 0);
  printf ("foo\n");
  sleep (5);
  printf ("bar");
}
