problems with coolview Bash 2.01

I have had problems using pipes in bash 2.01 as distributed
with coolview.  The following example is typical:

	$ ls -l | cat
	$
No ouput!  However if the output from ls is small there may be
some or all of the output displayed.

Adding parenthesis makes things work:

	$ (ls -l | cat )

Also doing:
	$ set +o monitor
	$ ls -l | cat
works, but the 'set +o monitor' doesn't fix things if it is
put in .bashrc

This problem is not in bash 1.14.7 distributed with b18.

Anyone else have this problem?
