Re: rpcgen with env variable CPP set to "cc -E"

Does this actually work? Based on the manpage, popen() expects a shell
command line as a single string, not the argv array you appear to be
passing it. Am I missing something?
Furthermore, if you do construct a shell command, won't that lose when
the filename in question contains shell metacharacters such as
whitespace? (This may not be enough of a problem in practice to nix
the technique, but IMO should be loudly warned about in the relevant
manpage.)
