Currently, if the number of leading zeros is greater than fits into a complete limb, mpi_write_sgl() skips them by iterating over them limb-wise. However, it fails to adjust its internal leading zeros tracking variable, lzeros, accordingly: it does a p -= sizeof(alimb); continue; which should really have been a lzeros -= sizeof(alimb); continue; Since lzeros never decreases if its initial value >= sizeof(alimb), nothing gets copied by mpi_write_sgl() in that case. Instead of skipping the high order zero limbs within the loop as shown above, fix the issue by adjusting the copying loop's bounds.
