The helm client errors in this case with "broken pipe." Other helm commands don't seem to have this problem.

$ helm help | head -5
NAME:
   helm - The Kubernetes package manager

To begin working with Helm, run the 'helm update' command:

panic: template: help:15:30: executing "help" at <

This might be an upstream bug with codegangsta cli. If it is, we should probably file upstream.

I guess the next time we glide up this will be resolved.
