   Default

       call.  If set to the default value of zero, all pipes  created  by  are
       normal  HP-UX  file-system  pipes.   If	the value is non-zero, creates
       STREAMS-based pipes, and STREAMS modules can be pushed onto the result‐
       ing stream.

       If  this	 tunable is set to a non-zero value, the and module and driver
       must be configured in file
