 ok - i documented how to use the test code, in the bugreport.  i'll
extend it later, to cover the cross-process things you mentioned.
short reads etc.  one test i'm looking forward to adding is passing a
4-byte handle as a "number" over to another process and trying to use
that :)

are there any tests of any kind, for NamedPipes?

i don't mind writing some weird test cases if it would help.  opening
pipes read-only and writing to them, that sort of thing.

 ohh i nearly forgot about transactnamedpipe - got to add that, too -
it'll again be absolutely essential for samba-integration.
