As I said: inside Apache, there's no reason not to change it. But I don't know how many 3rd party modules out there use ap_popenf() for other stuff, and perhaps rely on the open fd's staying open across an exec. (That's probably different with ap_open_piped_log() because a piped log is seldom used in an exec()ed child.) So, it's safer to stick with the ap_popenf_ex() duplication.
