#430: MacRuby does not reap processes started with popen

---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
in macirb, run the following line:
(0..100).each {IO.popen("echo yo") do |f| end}
in a separate shell, run "ps -eaf". It will show 100 zombie processes.
A source code comparison suggests that MacRuby, as opposed to ruby 1.9,
does not call waitpid when popen descriptors are closed.
