Yup, that seems to be the piece being played during the sequence in question. So there's your answer Martin, it's "Le Chiffre's Torture of the Mind" by Burt Bacharach. I wouldn't exactly categorise it as 'pipe music' though.
You probably already found this one, but I saw this movie a while ago and thought it was interesting that the pipes were used to play zydeco. I haven't been able to find any other examples of bagpipes in Cajun music.
A Perfect World - No one in this movie, featuring Kevin Costner and Clint Eastwood, plays the bagpipes on screen, but a record is played that has a bagpipe on it. This comes near the end of the movie when Kevin's character is dancing with the farmer's wife. The recording is of a Cajun band playing a waltz called, Big Fran's Baby, composed by Clint Eastwood (no kidding). There is no mention of who was the piper.

Have you found the website Bagpipes go to the Movies? It's no longer being maintained (I've sent a couple of entries to be added, but they didn't get in), but it's still up.

Fascinating website. Too bad it's fallen through the deep cracks of the world wide web.
