At least the change of ret from ssize_t to size_t is bogus.
pread returns a ssize_t and I am comparing it against sizeof(X).  We
might as we type convert in the comparison.   That test is a necessary 
and real comparison and I don't think hiding that fact with an implicit
conversion does anything but obfuscate things.
