Brandon,
the version of the run script in the attr and acl packages is somewhat dated;
I have made a few improvements since. I'll move this out of {acl,attr}/test
and put the latest version into the libmisc/ directory.
Note that I recently rewrote the run script from scratch. Unlike the old
version, the new one runs the whole script inside the same shell. There are
still a few problems to be solved; most importantly, user switching doesn't
work, yet. Eventually I want to replace the old version, though.

The new version had this fixed already.

Good idea. Added.
(Stuff like this will be obsolete with shrun.)

I have been using ">~" instead of "|" for that. I'm still not sure that
including regular expression matching was a good idea though, so shrun
doesn't have any of that yet. We'll se how things develop.
Thanks,
Andreas
