named pipe oddity

[Mike McCormack]

Hmmm. I didn't think of that case when I wrote the code :(

It seems that we need to add code to create a pipe and wait for a server 
  (ps_wait_connect) in server/named_pipe.c, line 349, and some more to 
connect a new pipe server to waiting clients at line 380.

If somebody wants to do it feel free, otherwise I'll turn out a patch 
sooner or later...
