test-lib.sh - cygwin does not have usable FIFOsml/cygwin-does-not-have-fifo
Do not use FIFOs on cygwin, they do not work. Cygwin includes coreutils, so has mkfifo, and that command does something. However, the resultant named pipe is known (on the Cygwin mailing list at least) to not work correctly. This disables PIPE for Cygwin, allowing t0008.sh to complete (all other tests in that file work correctly).
