Yes, that's what I had initially.
Something like: if (errno == EPIPE) ...
But I wasn't sure if that would need #ifdef on windows.
And I didn't want to break the windows bots.
So I decided to let APR figure out how to represent EPIPE.

Well, if the pipe write error is somewhere within the chain, we'd
have to iterate the entire chain. Is there an API for that?
I don't want to add a loop...

Good idea.
