Now doesn't report it is waiting until it actually is waiting,
plus message doesn't appear until at least 5 seconds wait, so
we avoid reporting the wait before we've given the archiver
a reasonable time to wake up and archive the file we just
created earlier in the function.
Also add new unconditional message to confirm safe completion.
Now a normal, healthy execution does not report waiting at
all, just safe completion.
