After a few more tries, I was able to reproduce this very rarely. Does 
the following patch help?

Eli: maybe you can help with some of the details here. In process.c, 
when we write to a process, we handle EPIPE errors by calling 
'deactivate_process'. However, that can lead to us dropping any data 
written *by* that process, since we don't call the process's filter 
function for any remaining output still in our internal buffer.

I think in this case, we'd just want to let the rest of our code handle 
deactivating the process in the usual way. That helps fix this bug, plus 
I think it makes sense in general. If a process closes stdin, I believe 
we'd get the EPIPE error, but that process might want to continue 
working (though it does mean that you could only interact with that 
process via signaling it).

Does that make sense?
