...sizeof(size_t) == sizeof(int) should hold...

what I have reported is not necessarily the cause of your error. Yes

BUT size_t is UNSIGNED and ssize_t is SIGNED.

The problem is that We store a signed return value into a unsigned variable.
So the check against -1 has no sense.

When comparing signed with unsigned types, the signed values are first
converted to unsigned, then possibly zero-extended.

So

(unsigned)-1 == (int)-1

but

(unsigned long)-1 == (long)-1

only when sizeof(long)==size(int)

quoted

and please note that also sizeof(int) == sizeof(unsigned int), but
-1 is a signed int !!

So?

Stupid me.. OK is == -1 and not < 0..

Probably today  I'm drunk without drink ..
