I checked the behaviour in my environment.
__builtin_clzl(960) returns 54 in my environment.
So, result of
	len1 = 1 << (31 - __builtin_clzl (avail));
is undefined. If I modify this to:
	len1 = 1 << (63 - __builtin_clzl (avail));
I can get:

$ ./a.exe 40000 1
pipe capacity: 65536
write: writable 1, 40000 25536
write: writable 1, 24576 960
write: writable 0, 512 448
write: writable 0, 256 192
write: writable 0, 128 64
write: writable 0, 64 0
write: writable 0, -1 / Resource temporarily unavailable

with the commit 686e46ce7148 as well as with my v9 patch.

Could you please fix?
