According to Jeff Johnston on 8/18/2009 10:17 AM:
Hi Eric,

Go ahead and commit. Just fix the typo "wries" in your documentation.

2009-08-18 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>

Improve popen compatibility with glibc.
* libc/posix/popen.c (popen): The 2006-08-22 change to use
FD_CLOEXEC disagrees with other implementations; instead, use
pidlist to work even when fcntl is not available. Meanwhile,
support the 'e' modifier to set CLOEXEC, as in glibc. Drop
cygwin-specific code, now that cygwin has its own version.
* libc/posix/Makefile.am (CHEWOUT_FILES): Document popen.
* libc/posix/posix.tex: New file.

Done with the corrected docs. However, I did not regenerate Makefile.in, as I don't have my environment set up for that at the moment.

I have done this.
