The new pipe-to-sam feature is interesting.  Unfortunately users of
Byron Rakitzis' rc (yay!) who also use SunOS tmpfs (boo!) will revisit
the old tmpfs-fifo problem: fifo's don't always work in tmpfs
(depending on open mode or something) and that's where sam puts one.
As a workaround, the changes in samterm/unix.c to put the fifo in
/usr/tmp instead are obvious.
