Sorry about not replying earlier. In fact any action using pipes under
Windows is silently unsupported. Sadly the fork/pipe/dup/etc soup under
the hood of these actions is highly OS-dependant. (And portability will
benefit using a rewrite with g_spawn_*, but I didn't look at that yet,
that seems rather painful :)
