pclose is POSIX.2

DJGPP's libc supports most of the POSIX.2 functions (except, I think,
wordexp() and wordfree()).  This includes fnmatch(), glob(), and
regexp().

glob() is a fun one - it's the function that the command line wildcard
expander uses.  Call glob("/.../*") and get a list of all the files on
your hard drive!
