New function proposal

Hi,
 
I'd like to propose the attached extension to octave. This implements a new
function exec_with_pipes, which creates communication pipes and start
a child process. The initial goal is to work around the fact that MSVC/MinGW
is missing fork(), such that popen2 is not working (note that MSVC also
misses POSIX pipe; it has a "_pipe" function, but with additional arguments).
 
I only implemented the Win32 version, but UNIX implementation should
be straightforward.
 
Michael.
