WOOHOO!!  I'll be your guinea pig for trying this on -stable if you
like.  All I have is a ZIP drive to test things with.  If it would
make any difference, I could also borrow a Yamaha 4260 CD writer and a
Sony SDT-S5200 DDS2 drive.

Should this apply cleanly to -stable?  If so, I'll give it a shot when
I get home.
