I see this only in djgpp bash - the updated package from
http://clio.rice.edu/djgpp/v203u/bsh204b.zip (as well as the original
version).

For example 
 c:\windows\system32\finger juhas AT eniac DOT seas DOT upenn DOT edu | c:\djgpp\bin\wc
works for the native cmd and also for cygwin bash, but in djgpp bash
( c:/windows/system32/finger juhas AT eniac DOT seas DOT upenn DOT edu|c:/djgpp/bin/wc)
wc does not see any input.

Same problems occur with cygwin programs ie:  c:/cygwin/bin/ls | wc, 
just try almost any non-djgpp console program.

HTH,
        Pavol
