Any chance of getting a passthrough or "SCSI emulation" so that
cdrecord could be used instead?  (Then you won't have to worry about
different CD-R quirks)

I have an Acer CRW 6202A which doesn't seem to work with FreeBSD
(current as of five minutes ago, including the rev 1.19 of
atapi-cd.c).  "wormcontrol blank" (with a CD-RW of course) runs for a
little while, then aborts with an I/O error.  Also, all IDE devices
are completely locked up while it's running.

The dd also sort of works for a while, then gets an I/O error.  Same
with fixate (which also locks up the IDE busses).

I'm currently recompiling with ATAPI_DEBUG and ACD_DEBUG in the hopes
that I'll be able to produce a better bug report.  Any suggestions?
