The issue here isn't the compilers hanging, it's tee living longer than
all the compilers do because it's stdin doesn't EOF (it'd be preferable
for it to only live as long as the last of the compilers).

I can imagine attempting to implement this with enough pipe and fd
redirection magic, but I'm not sure how (in)elegant that becomes.
