It seems that popen is broken:

octave:1> fid=popen('cat > out','w');
octave:2> fwrite(fid,1,'double');
octave:3> pclose(fid);
octave:4> system('ls -l out');

This fails on:
   octave 2.1.45 for gcc 2.96 (RedHat 7.1)
   octave 2.1.45 for MipsPRO CC 7.3 (IRIX 6.4)
But it works on:
   octave 2.1.38 for gcc 2.96 (RedHat 7.1)
   octave 2.1.40 for gcc 3.2 (IRIX 6.4)
   octave 2.1.44 for gcc 3.2 (cygwin)
Can someone confirm that it works for 2.1.45?
Or is this something which broke because of the
c-file-ptr-stream changes?

Are you certain?  It works in 2.1.44 and the code
for 2.1.45 looks like it should handle it too.
