Let's say don't expect to hear anything until your patches are officially released as a part of OS X -- if they are. The difference between paying and non-paying members is, that the later have access to pre-release software and thus sometimes get to check their own enhancement ideas before the rest of the poulation.

Where do I submit the code to Apple? Depending on the nature of your enhancements, there are at least two indirect channels: 1) If you enhanced some GNU or similar licensed code (e.g. bash, gcc, ...) you can join this project's community directly. This will make the patches go into Mac OS X in the long term, as Apple syncronises these projects from time to time. 2) File a bug/enhancement at <http://bugreport.apple.com/> (free registration required) and add the patch as an attachment. As a (non- paying) ADC Online member, don't expect to hear anything further after doing so. 3) In principle, there's OpenDarwin.org as well and they maintain a small set of patches, too. Currently they concentrate on getting Darwin built at all and are trying to avoid functional changes as this would imply a fork off from Apple's Darwin.

"Since popen() is now implemented using a bidirectional pipe, the type argument may request a bidirectional data flow." Note that my comment was about pipe() and the man page you quoted was for popen(). Perhaps you realised that but I'll point it out for the casual observer regardless. My point was that you're not going to be able to implement a bidirectional popen() with a single unidirectional pipe. In fact, calling pipe() twice doesn't help because you need to wrap them in a single FILE *, so socketpair() and fdopen() is the way to go. Having had a cursory scan of Libc/gen/popen.c in Jaguar and Panther it seems that the Panther implementation was blindly copied from FreeBSD, which has bidirectional pipes whereas Darwin doesn't (based on the man page), and the Jaguar implementation does call socketpair() but then overwrites the file descriptors by calling pipe() anyway (a silly bug). I have no idea what micro versions of the OS the source I was looking at corresponded to as it was just whatever was lying on my disk. This email sent to site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com

site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-dev(a)lists.apple.com So I was very sad to learn that popen with r+ doesn't work on jaguar and panther, Really? I tried looking at popen's source and doing the pipes and forks like it does it but fdopen keeps returning EINVAL (22) not liking the "r+" mode I send it.
