Hi Linus,

pipeline is implemented with piped-process, which is implemented with
scm_start_child, which does not use the shell. In your pipeline you can
use a shell explicitly if you wanted to. I do not think I should follow
the asterisk convention in procedure naming for pipeline. What do you
think?

The guile system call has a (system cmd ) which uses the shell and a system* call which takes (system* cmd arg ...) So that it does not rely on the shell. Maybe a similar interface could be useful (and more secure) for the pipeline as well.
