Use popen4 for spawning child processes in ruby #88

Open4 is not known to be very windows friendly. Popen4 is another gem that has 
better windows support. 

Try using popen4 gem(or another one with comparable windows support).

Also make sure popen4 is stable enough on *nix. 

DON'T switch to popen4 if it disturbs *nix stability, instead try to patch 
open4 to make it work on Windows.
