regression test showing the bug

Hi,

Normally when the write end of a pipe is closed, the read end should see that
upon further reads. However wine's _popen()/_pclose() do not work that way - a
child's read from stdin blocks after the parent's _pclose().

I've attached a patch to the tests to show the problem. The tests hang, but
should succeed.

I reproduced this on git commit 8b9f1e12841298591387e2b7590191610a37986e

Regards,

Andres

PS: I encountered this because I was trying to fix a bug in the windows port of
postgres without having to use windows...
