I think the num_loops variable was intended to be signed so that we
could set it to -1 and it would loop forever. Right now it just loops
for a very long time.

Applied. I'm not going to rush this one as that is a very
long time so we are unlikely to get lots of problems with it ;)
Will wait for the next cycle.
