I use this code:

...
        sig::action sa;
        sa.set_handler( SIG_IGN);
        sig::action old_sa( sa.run( SIGPIPE) );
        boost::shared_ptr< void > guard(
                static_cast< void * >( 0),
                boost::bind(
                        & sig::action::run,
                        old_sa, 
                        SIGPIPE) );

        ::write(...)

...

sig:action abstracts struct sigaction, clib function ::sigaction and so
on.

After sa.run( SIGPIPE) the signal is ignored and write would return
EPIPE. The shared_ptr resets the original signal handler after getting
out of scope.
