What's new:
-----------
- popen now supports the Glibc 'e' flag to set the FD_CLOEXEC flag on the pipe
in a thread-safe way.
What changed:
-------------
- Switch to BSD FILE stream fopen/exit semantics, as in all BSD variants and
Linux/GLibc: Don't fflush/lseek a FILE stream on fclose and exit, if it
only has been read from.
