I never did a huge amount of testing (which is why I never submitted a
pr), so it may be.  I don't see any likely candidates, though, since
the differences in setup between wormcontrol and cdrecord are slim.
Even so, since the failure locks up my SCSI bus, and wormcontrol works
fine, I saw no real need to spend the time and effort to troubleshoot
the problem.

Happy hacking,
