Some while ago, I committed a patch to trunk which adds the shell_bypass option to `proc_open()` on UNIX. I'd like to backport that patch to 5.3.2, along with posix_pipe(), which helps quite a bit in using it. The patch can be found at <http://pastebin.ca/raw/1691644>. It's been tested and run through valgrind and the Clang analyzer. Any reason I shouldn't commit it? I tried to get it into 5.3.0 but the consensus at the time was "let's get this out the door already" :).

You'll find them in the same place as the "Any" key.
