Bug #15199

scanf.rb broken with io from IO.pipe (MinGW or Windows?)

Description

scanf.rb seems to be broken when using an io from a pipe.

The following code is used in IO#scanf:

link: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/d4b0efc010a45e904ecdad2dd74374b5c74e61e3/lib/scanf.rb#L661-L664

begin
  seek(start_position + matched_so_far, IO::SEEK_SET)
rescue Errno::ESPIPE
end

if the rescue statement is replaced with:

rescue Errno::ESPIPE, Errno::EINVAL

It seems to work. I assume at some point, a 'pipe' io raised an Errno::ESPIPE error when called with #seek, but trunk & 2.3 respond with Errno::EINVAL...

I've tested on Windows and confirmed this is a bug.

I added a pull request upstream to fix this: https://github.com/ruby/scanf/pull/4

If nobody has objections, I'll merge this in about a week.
