Bug Description

xournal v 0.4.7 crashes when one attempts to load a background page from a file.

1. I'm using LMDE (release 1), cinnamon, 64 bits.

2. Starting xournal, selecting the "page" dropdown menu, "load background" , and a pdf file in the selection menu.

3. Window disappears (segfault).

4. I would have expected the background of the page to change.

5. Happens every time.

Line 1013 of xo-file.c reads:

 gs_pipe = popen(pipename, "rb");

If I replace "rb" with "r" it works fine. (popen returns null if "rb" is specified.)
