--- Comment #2 from Marcin Lewandowski <marcin at saepia.net> ---
I have found out that once this happens, the code flow is the following:

* pa_asyncmsgq_new calls

* pa_asyncq_new

  here it fails on 

  !(l->write_fdsem = pa_fdsem_new())

* pa_fdsem_new 

  here it fails on 

  pa_pipe_cloexec(f->fds) < 0

* pa_pipe_cloexec

  HAVE_PIPE2 is set

  if ((r = pipe2(pipefd, O_CLOEXEC)) >= 0) {
    pa_log("(r = pipe2(pipefd, O_CLOEXEC)) >= 0");
    goto finish;
  }

  has to return < 0 because it does not jump into finish

  but then

  if (errno != EINVAL && errno != ENOSYS) 

  matches, so it returns r, which is < 0.
