#7 Error when auto-selecting fifo file

[Jérôme]

I've noticed there is a bug that occurs sometimes.
When looking for fifo file to read from, sometimes the wrong file is selected because the search for pid from ppid is erroneous : it sometimes select a file that has a wrong ppid because this ppid begins with the same characters (digits) as the ppid to look for (e.g. found ppid is 123 whereas 12345 is searched for).
