Sort of, but it often gets things wrong for the more interesting
CD-ROM types.  I've never had it work correctly with Photo CDs, for
example; I'm always stuck doing successive `mount_cd9660 -o 12345'
until I find the one that actually works (as opposed to the one the
code chooses automatically, which never has a valid filesystem on it).
