is IgnoreSIGPIPE=false needed ?

I guess it would be safer to set IgnoreSIGPIPE=false in every service. (static & generated)

IMHO, if some movement around the default value of this parameter in systemd, we should stick it to false to avoid possible unexpected issues.

after a quick survey, this is set for all .service that may start a subshell: at , cron , kdm , debug-shell ...
so I'll follow this pattern. It's in systemd since 2011 (https://gitorious.org/baserock-morphs/systemd/commit/353e12c) and all the other .service have already been fixed since; so I doubt the default will be changed.

... and while true; do echo XXXX; done | head -n 10 breaks horribly and fills up the journal with echo's I/O error.
