Ah, ok. I had tried @var{filedes[0]} but then makeinfo complained about the 
brackets.

Also -- since the change is almost trivial -- should popen be changed to add 
in FILE_DESC_PIPE to prevent seeks with it's fd? Then the second sentence in 
this excerpt errno.txh can go away:
ESPIPE -- Invalid seek: attempt to seek on a pipe.  Never happens in
DJGPP, except for NetWare-related operations, since pipes are simulated
with regular files in MS-DOS, and therefore are always seekable.
