Building builtin-stat.c reports the following errors:

cc1: warnings being treated as errors
builtin-stat.c: In function ‘run_perf_stat’:
builtin-stat.c:242: erreur: ignoring return value of ‘read’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result
builtin-stat.c:255: erreur: ignoring return value of ‘read’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result
make: *** [builtin-stat.o] Erreur 1

This patch handles the possible pipe read failures.
