If the engine dies I would expect the input thread to generate an EOF, which would then trigger the error handling. But it didn't.


Well this seems like a bad bug which should be fixed first before
talking about "No such file" hacks, doesn't it?

As I said, the issue is not specific to UCI engines. I.e. do

xboard -fcp ps

The ps command itself quits very quicky (you can see this by starting it with polyglot)

Code:
polyglot -noini -ec ps
PolyGlot 1.4.67b by Fabien Letouzey.
tellusererror POLYGLOT: pipex_exit(): ps: child exited with status 0.


Yet xboard is not able to see that ps has quit and considers it as a wb 1 engine(!).
