When a filehandle is cloned into a standard handle, do_openn() copies
the pid from the original handle in PL_fdpid to the standard handle
and zeroes the entry for the original handle, so when the original
handle was closed Perl_my_pclose() would call wait4pid() with a pid of 0.
With v5.19.3-614-gd4c0274 I modified wait4pid(), perl's waitpid/wait4()
wrapper, to allow a pid of zero through to the actual system call when
available.
These combined so that following v5.19.3-614-gd4c0274 in some
circumstances closing the original handle would block by calling
waitpid(0, ...) or wait4(0, ...), which waits for any child process in
the same process group to terminate.
This commit changes Perl_my_pclose() to wait for the child only when
the stored pid is positive.
