i've got problem with growisofs from dvd+rw-tools-5.21.4.10.8 package - it doesn't close session sometimes. here is what i have done and what has happened:

it also sometimes happens when burning initial session (growisofs -Z...) i hadn't this problem when i was using dvd+rw-tools-5.17.4.8.6. i also have similar problem with ASUS DRW-1604P drive.
as i mentioned it _doesn't_ happen every time. sometimes session is closed properly but i don't know what it depends on.
i use 'close' program provided by Andy Polyakov as a workaround to bug in dvd+rw-tools-5.19 to close such unclosed sessions and it works everytime i use it, but i'd rather not to have to use it :)
