orte_rml.send_buffer returns the number of bytes sent or a negative value if

something went wrong. A positiv number > 0 is however a correct value (in
contrary to orte_rml.recv_buffer, which really returns ORTE_SUCCESS or an
error code).

Note: this part of the code is correct on 1.1 and 1.2 branch, no need to move
this change patch to the release branches.
