well, "broken pipe" is a real general error just meaning that the transfer cannot be completed for one reason or another.. i'm sure there are many many reasons you might get that message.. you may want to search on this site or on google for different causes/solutions.
i'm sure others on here will list some things to try, i just don't have any suggestions myself.

pipe
pipe(2) System Calls pipe(2)
NAME
pipe - create an interprocess channel
SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
int pipe(int fildes[2]);
DESCRIPTION
The pipe() function creates an I/O mechanism called a pipe and returns two file descriptors, fildes[0] and fildes[1]. The files associated
with fildes[0] and fildes[1] are streams and are both opened for reading and writing. The O_NDELAY, O_NONBLOCK, and FD_CLOEXEC flags are
cleared on both file descriptors. The fcntl(2) function can be used to set these flags.
A read from fildes[0] accesses the data written to fildes[1] on a first-in-first-out (FIFO) basis and a read from fildes[1] accesses the
data written to fildes[0] also on a FIFO basis.
Upon successful completion pipe() marks for update the st_atime, st_ctime, and st_mtime fields of the pipe.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, 0 is returned. Otherwise, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The pipe() function will fail if:
EMFILE More than {OPEN_MAX} file descriptors are already in use by this process.
ENFILE The number of simultaneously open files in the system would exceed a system-imposed limit.
ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
| ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE |
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
|Interface Stability |Standard |

SEE ALSO
sh(1), fcntl(2), fstat(2), getmsg(2), poll(2), putmsg(2), read(2), write(2), attributes(5), standards(5), streamio(7I)
NOTES
Since a pipe is bi-directional, there are two separate flows of data. Therefore, the size (st_size) returned by a call to fstat(2) with
argument fildes[0] or fildes[1] is the number of bytes available for reading from fildes[0] or fildes[1] respectively. Previously, the
size (st_size) returned by a call to fstat() with argument fildes[1] (the write-end) was the number of bytes available for reading from
fildes[0] (the read-end).
