1. Select files to burn on DVD
2. Let NCB create image on:
   a) Too small disk
   b) Disk with FS that does not support large files (ie FAT or so)
3. Watch mkisofs debug output, it says:
   a) make_iso stderr: mkisofs: No space left on device. cannot fwrite 32768*1
   or for
   b) File size limit exceeded
4. Either will hang NCB consuming full CPU load.
5. Selecting a bit less files works fine.

This should fix the hang.  The fix for bug 164432 will give more useful error
messages.

	* make-iso.c (mkisofs_stderr_read): Watch for mkisofs error messages
	and return an error condition.
	(Closes #158940)

	* nautilus-cd-burner.c (burn_cd): Use warn_low_space for writing
	to ISO file output also.

	* make-iso.c (nautilus_burn_make_iso):
	Make size comparison between values of the same units.
