bpipe log executed as different user to the one who started the pipeline incorrectly reports that it is finished

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Start a long running pipeline
2. Log in as different user
3. Go to pipeline directory and execute "bpipe log" What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Expect to see ongoing log. Instead, Bpipe says it finished.

Guesswork: Bpipe is querying the status of the process id from the OS and is confusing a permission denied error with the process not existing.
