On Windows, the read function from <io.h> is used, which has its byte
count parameter as unsigned int instead of size_t [0].

The warning is visible in the autobuilds: https://curl.haxx.se/dev/log.cgi?id=20180910161513-27869#prob1

[0] https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/c-runtime-library/reference/read

retcode = read(fd, ptr, size * nmemb);
#endif

how about instead writing it in a way that only has the function call in one place?

#ifdef WIN32
#define READ_3RD_ARG unsigned int
#else 
#define READ_3RD_ARG size_t
#endif

  retcode = read(fd, ptr, (READ_3RD_ARG)(size * nmemb));

Looks better, yes, and then it can also be integrated into the existing #ifdef. Thanks!
