Dear Maintainer,

When opening a specific generated cmake file, featherpad hangs instantly in a
busy loop. The window is not redrawn when obscured. It continues to hang for up
to several minutes and must be killed with SIGKILL as it does not respond to a
normal kill.

This bug affects version 0.17.1-1 (current in Bullseye). It is resolved in
version 1.0.1-0.1 (in Testing).
