Sure - thanks for your quick reply.

My patch removes the --std=c89 CFLAG.
 * --std=c89 is the same as -ansi (according to gcc manpage)
 * -ansi causes __STRICT_ANSI__ to be defined
 * in features.h, __STRICT_ANSI__ prevents __USE_POSIX from being defined
 * features.h is included by stdio.h
 * stdio.h defines popen and fdopen only if __USE_POSIX is defined

So, this isn't just a warning suppression.
