i'm not sure that annoyance == urgency.  we're currently (albeit
slowly) in the process of making the popen/spopen calls obsolete
by way of a much more safe/efficient/clean architecture, but this
particular patch is small and straightforward enough that i'll go ahead
and commit it to head and we can decide later whether it warrants a new
1.4 series release.
