Why would that happen only in terminals > started by xwin-xdg-menu? I just built a version of grep in which I added 'signal(SIGPIPE, SIG_DFL)', and the error is gone. So it looks like grep has in fact been receiving SIGPIPE, and for some reason it is not using the default signal handler for SIGPIPE in a terminal started by xwin-xdg-menu. Could this be a gtk issue? Does it mess with the signal handlers?
