The patch looks ok except those

+#ifndef __MINGW32__
   open,
+#else
+  openMenu,
+#endif

Imo it is enough to rename open to openMenu.

You could also try to make the run command work using CreateProcess with
redirected stdout/stdin
Maybe this sample code helps you to write mingw versions of run_shell_cmd()
and check_child()
