// Botan::Pipe objects.  Instead of writing
//
//   Botan::Pipe p(...);
//
// you do
//
//   static cached_botan_pipe p(new Botan::Pipe(...));
//
// and then use p like a Botan::Pipe object (except with -> instead of .).
//
// The global pipe_cache_cleanup object takes care of destroying all such
// cached pipes before the Botan::LibraryInitializer object is destroyed.
