Subject: [boost] [Process] Proposed solution for posix pipes staying open

Hello,
I'm new to Boost and looking for some help on the right process to
propose patches.
I'm running in an embedded Linux environment (OpenBMC) using Boost
1.69.0 and just switched a couple of std::system() calls to
boost::process::system() calls. After making this change, I noticed
that each time my process executed the bp::system() call, I would get an
extra pipe fd in my /proc/<pid>/fd list.
I did some debugging and have found a possible solution for this issue
in the Boost.Process posix headers that I would like to propose. What
is the right forum or process to post my patch (post it here, github
pull request, etc.)?
Thanks!
