System: NetBSD frohike.nvie.com 2.0_BETA NetBSD 2.0_BETA (FROHIKE) #0: Mon Jun 14 22:16:42 CEST 2004 sjamaan@frohike.nvie.com:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/FROHIKE i386

>Description:
	The manpage of popen(3) does not mention POSIX.  POSIX defines
	popen, so I guess it should be mentioned.
>How-To-Repeat:
	n/a
>Fix:
	Describe POSIX conformance under (currently non-existant) STANDARDS
	section.  It seems it's non-POSIX compatible in that it accepts "rw"
	as the `mode' (last) argument.
