Just for completeness:

Been googling a bit, and, as the Cygwin folks sure know,
under NT it is possible to get the internal names of objects,
and NT assigns unique names to pipes.

This is from the test files pasted at the bottom:

>./parent.exe
par: Filename from handle (STD_INPUT_HANDLE) returned :
\Device\NamedPipe\Win32Pipes.00000c70.00000002
par: Filename from handle (STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE) returned :
\Device\NamedPipe\Win32Pipes.00000c70.00000003
par: Filename from handle (STD_ERROR_HANDLE) returned :
\Device\NamedPipe\Win32Pipes.00000c70.00000003
par: Filename from handle (hReadPipe) returned :
\Device\NamedPipe\Win32Pipes.00000290.00000002
par: Filename from handle (hWritePipe) returned :
\Device\NamedPipe\Win32Pipes.00000290.00000002
par: Filename from handle (h) returned :
\Device\NamedPipe\testpipe
par: Filename from handle (duph) returned :
\Device\NamedPipe\Win32Pipes.00000290.00000002
child: Filename from handle (STD_INPUT_HANDLE) returned :
\Device\NamedPipe\Win32Pipes.00000c70.00000002
child: Filename from handle (STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE) returned :
\Device\NamedPipe\Win32Pipes.00000c70.00000003
child: Filename from handle (STD_ERROR_HANDLE) returned :
\Device\NamedPipe\Win32Pipes.00000c70.00000003

Notice that the STD_{INPUT|OUTPUT|ERROR}_HANDLEs are the
same pipes.

Since the next big Cygwin release will be NT only, perhaps this could
be used to map pipes to ttys.

Disclosure: I haven't really looked into Cygwin's sources to see
what it would take.  It may be saying something plain dumb.
