I've something working, but I need to sort some things out with someone
from the core in a fast response talk (like IRC).

I remembered I wanted to suggest you to take a look on how it is
implemented in
Python. Their docs state: """
popen (command[, mode[, bufsize]]) 

Changed in version 2.0: This function worked unreliably under Windows in
earlier versions of Python. This was due to the use of the _popen()
function from the libraries provided with Windows. Newer versions of
Python do not use the broken implementation from the Windows libraries. 


Python also has popen{2,3,4}(), [ in module os, also there is a popen2
module ].

I took a peek into posixmodule.c (iirc) but didn't figure out from
_PyPopen() how they
do it cause it's a bit over my knowledge :)

One can grab the python2.0 sources and have a look if interested (I
don't have the relevant file at hand).

Great! I can assist you. Ask me questions about the V_*'s and I'll do my 
best :)

I'm busy with it. I'm making progress indeed. I only have to bring the
code into the PHP source now. BUt it looks good. I'll try to finish it
this week, but it will be a hack, because I don't understand your V_*
macro's quite well. But I assume some devs can assist me with this later
on.
