I've just checked in r112 which should address this. You no longer need to 
specify a --cache parameter with stdin and --split-file if there's only one 
pass required. Additionally, if you do specify a --cache parameter but only 
one pass ends up being required, no cache will be generated anyway since 
it would only slow things down.
