If you are running nwipe within the KDE konsole terminal and you resize the window by pulling on the corners, occasionally nwipe will exit with the error message: "GUI.c,nwipe_gui_select(), loop runaway, did you close the terminal without exiting nwipe? Initiating shutdown now" The loop runaway detection has been made less sensitive, i.e 32 iterations per second of the GUI update can now be completed before a loop runaway is detected. previously it was 8. In practise when sizing the konsole window, anywhere between 1 and 17 iterations will occur.
