dns: Fix bug in error handling when talking to script

Comparing the result of read/write to a size_t value
is dangerous C. Since ssize_t and size_t have the same
size ssize_t is promoted to size_t, so -1 becomes
size_t max value and is not smaller than the expected
length.

Make sure to compare ssize_t to ssize_t to avoid any
suprises.
