From: Frank Lichtenheld <frank@lichtenheld.com>

write takes size_t as count (unsigned int on
Windows) and returns ssize_t (int on Windows).
But we often want to compare the return value
to the count.

Generally we can just rely on the fact that
sizeof(ssize_t) == sizeof(size_t) and use that
for all values. (Until we want to introduce
-Wsign-conversion that is...)
