Be more correct in read_from_stdin()
From read(2) manual page on OpenBSD: Error checks should explicitly test for -1. Code such as while ((nr = read(fd, buf, sizeof(buf))) > 0) is not maximally portable, as some platforms allow for nbytes to range between SSIZE_MAX and SIZE_MAX - 2, in which case the return value of an error-free read() may appear as a negative number distinct from -1. Proper loops should use while ((nr = read(fd, buf, sizeof(buf))) != -1 && nr != 0) Distingushing between error and eof would also help for debugging.
