Comment (by kean):
Ignoring SIGPIPE is the correct thing to do in my opinion. SIGPIPE is
delivered when one of the clients terminates the connection rather than
the daemon terminating it. Of course there is some question as to why the
client is breaking the connection early but the delivery of SIGPIPE is a
very heavy-handed aspect of the sockets API. Hundreds upon hundreds of
applications that deal with remote connections just ignore SIGPIPE because
they take care of detecting a remote disconnect in other ways (return
values from select / poll / recv / read / write etc).
