Windows: Work around an oddity when a pipe with no reader is written to.
On Windows, write() is implemented using WriteFile(). After the reader
closed its end of the pipe, the first WriteFile() returns
ERROR_BROKEN_PIPE (which translates to EPIPE), subsequent WriteFile()s
return ERROR_NO_DATA, which is translated to EINVAL.
