Subject: [PATCH] Restore SIGPIPE default action for subprocesses

Python ignores SIGPIPE on startup, because it prefers to check every
write and raise an IOError exception rather than taking the signal. Most
Unix subprocesses don't expect to work this way. This patch (adapted
from Colin Watson's post at http://tinyurl.com/2a7mzh5) sets SIGPIPE
back to the default action for cinder.utils.execute and cinder-rootwrap
created subprocesses.

Fixes bug 1053364
