OK, it turns out if I add a (sleep 1) just before your close-port, I
see the "Bad file descriptor" errors again, i.e.:

         (sleep 1)
         (close-port (cdr pair))   ;; write side

produces this, and the two subsequent tests also fail:

  Running popen.test
  FAIL: popen.test: open-output-pipe: no duplicate
  ERROR: popen.test: close-pipe: exit 0 - arguments: ((wrong-number-of-args #f 
"Wrong number of arguments to ~A" (#<procedure #f (pt-entry)>) #f))
  ERROR: In procedure fport_flush:
  ERROR: Bad file descriptor
  ERROR: In procedure fport_flush:
