>Description:
The lang/lua port has a tweakable which allows you to build it with support for the popen(3) libc call. Not all platforms support the popen call, AT&T UNIX v7 and higher do.

When building Lua on FreeBSD, it will build without popen support, which is odd. popen support does come in handy and using Lua without popen will break/cripple other applications in the tree, like the Ion window manager for example.
>How-To-Repeat:
Build lang/lua.
>Fix:
Add the contents of the following file to 'files/patch-aa':
