Status of set -o pipefail

Status of set -o pipefail

[Ibrahim Ghazal]

Back in December 2019, there was a thread on this mailing list about
set -o pipefail [1]. Two patches implementing it were posted [2][3].
However, there was no activity afterwards and it was never merged into
dash.

Could a committer look into the patches and apply either of them
please? From the last thread, there was no objection to adding the
feature since it will be in the next POSIX standard.

AFAIK nobody has actually posted a patch to this list.
