commit    29babe981cba76d934aa4936ca393ddd2894c4e7
Author:   Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>

    Restore psql's SIGPIPE setting if popen() fails.
    
    Ancient oversight in PageOutput(): if popen() fails, we'd better reset
    the SIGPIPE handler before returning stdout, because ClosePager() won't.
    Noticed while fixing the empty-PAGER issue.
