Upgrade to the latest patches on the repository ("make update").  You  
could also define:

(define (with-input-from-process path-or-settings thunk)
   (let ((p (open-process path-or-settings)))
     (parameterize ((current-input-port p))
       (let ((result (thunk)))
         (process-status p)
         (close-port p)
         result))))
