getOutputFrom() is racy, /bin/true is exiting before rpmbuild
can manage to send info to the pipe.

Instead of /bin/true, write a short wrapper script that
cat's stdin to /dev/null, and then does exit 0.

That should work around the getOutputFrom() raciness.

FWIW, the raciness is a design flaw in rpm, been there forever.
