[mythtv] [PATCH] MythGame: get rid of zombie process after playing a game

MythGame leaves a zombie process around after a game is played (with
xmame), which becomes pretty annoying after playing a long round of
games ;-)

The attached one-liner fixes this problem. I quickly checked the other
handlers and didn't find any missing pclose() calls.

Cheers,

Eloy.-
