[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

When reading from open-input-pipe, it returns #eof on macOS devices, while it works properly in Linux.

```
(use-modules (ice-9 popen)
             (ice-9 rdelim))
(let* ((port (open-input-pipe "date --utc"))
       (str  (read-line port)))
  (close-pipe port)
  str)
```
macOS> #<eof>
linux> "Thu Jun 22 12:30:26 AM UTC 2023"


Building latest and running popen.test also fails with:

m1 :: Projects/guile/test-suite ? guile -L . -e main -s guile-test tests/popen.test
