Mike,
Thanks a lot.  It works fine.  There were two problems.
	1. cdrecord 1.6a12 compiled with current would 
           always give the bad system call.  I changed 
           it to one compiled with 2.2.6 and the bad
           system call went away.
	2. You also have to do a s/link from /dev/cd0c
           to /dev/scgx and everything is beautiful.
	   I burned and tested FreeBSD cdrom set with
	   no problems.
Thanks again.

P.D.  We can add the MCA-CDRW 226 from mitsubishi to the
      good list.
