Woulnd't it be better, if bearshare requested the range, which is avaible?

It gets the avaible range, so it should just request what is avaible.

Else I'm sure it can produce many bugs just because what the Bearshare client gets isn't what it requested.

The Limewire client would be a bit more flexible, if it served what it can, but the bearshare would also be more flexible, if it just requested what is avaible.

In this case Bearshare requested about 250kB, but Limewire had only the first 70kB (or so).

Des Beashare have a fixed download-segment-size?

Phex now uses flexible sizes (from 16bK to 20MB), I don't know, what LimeWire uses.
