See the thread at

for details.
As implied in thread in question the fatal failures [like "retry in 0
ms" and failure to close disc/session at the end of recording] are
indeed fixed in dvd+rw-tools 6.0. Remaining "appears to be stuck" are
pure warnings, which can be safely ignored. growisofs normally
attempts to hide them and shows them only when it appears abnormal
from a viewpoint of cautious programmer such as myself. The last part
means that if I at some point feel that it's 100% appropriate to just
hide this warnings and that they add no value whatsoever to
troubleshooting, I will just remove them. But till then you have
to/can simply ignore them.
Actually, if you think they have value that's fine. If nothing else they
may help identify corner cases in error reports. Nice to get an error
message if only to be sure the program KNOWS it's wedged.
