[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #47968] mxe-octave: build of default branch fails with "unable to deduce 'const auto' from 'octave::sys::popen2'"

[John Donoghue]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #47968 (project octave):

I got it to compile for me now (see attached), but havent tried running it
yet.

1. defined a type for the popen2 function to fix the initial compile error.

2. #ifdef'd the original popen2 function in oct-syscalls.cc so that it isnt
available in  windows to fix the next issue that occurs.

Shouldnt the existing unix popen2  call be moved to lo-sysdep.cpp rather than
have to ifdef both liboctave/system/lo-sysdep.cc and
liboctave/system/oct-syscalls.cc ?

(file #37226)
