Yes, but there I get an error (even under mintty) for a different reason: $ strace -o trace.out ls -lL <(grep bash .bashrc) ls: cannot access '/dev/fd/63': No such file or directory The strace output shows a call to fhandler_process::exists on /proc/45036/fd/63; here 45036 is the PID of 'ls'. And then I see an EBADF error. But I think what's happening here might be that bash is parsing '<(grep bash .bashrc)' too soon, so that '/dev/fd/63' isn't related to the 'ls' command. By the way, I've just tried a different experiment, in which I simplify the ls command to 'ls <(grep bash .bashrc)'. When I run this under xterm, I get the broken pipe error 98% of the time or more. But it's fine under mintty.
