The code change looks good, while the log can be improved with more
details so that people can more easily get what's wrong and fixed.

===
When loading segments, ubytes is <= mbytes. When ubytes is exhausted,
there could be remaining mbytes. Then in the while loop, the buf pointer
advancing with mchunk will causing meaningless reading even though it
doesn't harm. 

So let's change to make sure that all of the copying and the rest only
happens before uchunk goes to zero.

Please take above words as reference to udpate patch log and post v3,
and you can add:
