I'm not sure why we are writing data here. For both the pipe and fifo
the select() will return that we can write there, hence the return would
be non-zero regardless.

Also I would like to be more specific. E.g. expecting specific return
instead of just non-zero and also making sure the right bits are enabled
in the fd sets.
