Different default options selected during build.

$ fgrep popen -C2 /usr/include/stdio.h
#if __MISC_VISIBLE || __POSIX_VISIBLE >= 199209
int     _EXFUN(pclose, (FILE *));
FILE *  _EXFUN(popen, (const char *, const char *));
#endif

$ egrep -B1 '#define\s+__(MISC_VISIBLE\s+1|POSIX_VISIBLE\s+199209)' /usr/include/sys/features.h  
#ifdef _DEFAULT_SOURCE
#define __MISC_VISIBLE          1
--
#elif (_POSIX_C_SOURCE - 0) >= 2 || defined(_XOPEN_SOURCE)
#define __POSIX_VISIBLE         199209

So you have to #define _DEFAULT_SOURCE 1, _XOPEN_SOURCE 1, or 
_POSIX_C_SOURCE 2: some of these may be enabled by using 
-std=gnu++1[14yz] instead of -std=c++...; 
roughly speaking the latter enables only ISO/IEC 9899:yyyy 
standard features and disables POSIX-only features, which 
are enabled by using -std=gnu++...

Take care. Thanks, Brian Inglis, Calgary, Alberta, Canada
