So it won't work on Windows? Maybe that doesn't matter for the
particular case that we are looking at now since we are only trying to
improve the error message. But in that case, maybe it shouldn't
produce an error when called on a system that doesn't have mkfifo.
Or should any use of this function go inside a try/catch block?
Also, instead of checking ispc to decide whether mkfifo is available,
you might just try using mkfifo in a try/catch block. If it fails,
then you can decide what to do (maybe issue a new error mesage, or
rethrow the previous error?).
