    Problem Text
    This test may fail on implementations which return an error
    when an attempt is made to open() a fifo using the undefined
    flag combination, O_TRUNC|O_RDONLY.

    writev assertions # 23, 25, 27 call open() with O_TRUNC and O_RDONLY:
    specifically, open(test_fifo,O_TRUNC|O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK)

    >From the X/Open specification description of open(), specifically the
    description of the O_TRUNC option flag...
    "O_TRUNC .... The result of using O_TRUNC with O_RDONLY is undefined"

    Clearly this call to open() is a non-portable implementation.
