Subject: proposed popen replacement using posix_spawn

Hi all,

I've rewritten popen using posix_spawn and, based on minimal testing,
it seems to be working. Please take a look and let me know if you see
any issues with it; if I don't hear any problems soon I'll probably
commit and fix bugs later if necessary. The important corner cases
seem to be:

- fd exhaustion
- memory exhaustion
- cases where stdio and/or stdout is closed prior to popen
