It looks like pipe.c is full of backend-specific error-reporting code.
I could rewrite it to work in the frontend, but since it's obviously
not used anywhere there it seems like an exercise in futility.

The viable options appear to be:

1. Use #ifndef FRONTEND to dike out the entire file.
2. Make a small change to the Makefile to only compile this into the
backend version of the library, and just skip it for the frontend
version.
3. Move it into src/backend/port.

My first thought is to go with #3.
