If it's selected on a per-file basis (as I think was suggested on SF
message thingy) it should be fine. I wanted it in the past too, though
not right now.

Last time I saw this in the gcc man page:
-pipe Use pipes rather than temporary files for communi-
cation between the various stages of compilation.
This fails to work on some systems where the assem-
bler cannot read from a pipe; but the GNU assembler
has no trouble.
I forget where the discussion went after that. Anyway, it should
disablable in configure. And does it really give a speed boost?
I couldn't tell, I think.
