If you strace this, do you see the SIGPIPE handler being set to IGNORE. On
my system I do:
$ strace ./demo.pl 2>&1 | grep SIGPIPE
rt_sigaction(SIGPIPE, {SIG_IGN, [], SA_RESTORER, 0x343ca0efe0}, NULL, 8) = 0
rt_sigaction(SIGPIPE, {SIG_IGN, [], SA_RESTORER, 0x343ca0efe0}, {SIG_IGN, [], SA_RESTORER, 0x343ca0efe0}, 8) = 0
and I don't see any EPIPE error when killing ssh
