I'm wondering which case failed for you and what's the diff output and
.full file? And what change caused the failure for you? Because I didn't
see any failure on my RHEL7 box nor Fedora rawhide box. I compiled
latest yes from coreutils git repo and didn't hit the error either.

So I suspect that it might be other commands in the pipeline that failed
and caused the broken pipe.

Thanks,
