Initially I would have said NOTABUG - bash is trying to write to a closed pipe
(since head -n1 has read everything it is interested in and exit-ed) so of
course it gets sent a SIGPIPE.
But you don't usually expect programs to whinge about it like that, and it's
damn hard to reproduce at the command line. More interestingly, "gaze -q
version
udev |head -n1" works fine.

Mind you, there's a trap command for SIGPIPE on line 2085 which I can't see
justification for - comment it out and the command works fine.

So it would seem to be some bizarre interaction between /usr/bin/column,
functions, subshells and signal handlers, but I didn't pinpoint it.
