[Bug stdio/17490] popen should not invoke atfork handlers


https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17490

--- Comment #2 from Florian Weimer <fweimer at redhat dot com> ---
I think POSIX is actually pretty clear here, and that POSIX requires that the
fork handlers are used from within popen and system.  But I also think this is
a defect in POSIX, so I don't see a problem with deviating from POSIX here.
