reading from named pipes on OSX?

[Aaron Turner <synfinatic () gmail com>]

Reading the man page for tshark indicates that the following is vaild:

mkfifo foo
tshark -i foo &
cat somefile.pcap >foo

Which seems to work on Linux, but not OS X:

Capturing on foo
tshark: Unexpected error from select: Invalid argument

Using 1.2.2 & 1.2.4... is this a known issue?
