Debugging window closes during gdb debug process

If you debug a program in linux for longer than roughly a day the debugging terminal will close while the program is still active. The problem exists because the terminal is created with a sleep command, and then the debugger outputs to that terminals tty once it has been identified by it's unique sleep command. The sleep is defined by 80000 plus the current process ID. I have put together a patch that fixes this bug by increasing the sleep time to hours instead of seconds.
