It was slow, but it worked -- when it finished, Kali had trouble allocating /itself/ enough root file system space, so I had to manually partition and try again.
Anyway, wipe is best run early. I'll keep wipe in mind and the other tools too if the /dev/zero write gives more grief. It's still a bit too early to tell, but the /dev/zero writing is okay so far, but a little less than an hour in as I type .... for the first crypt volume.
