That and putting in some hacked fork of cdrecord, I think it's called woeful, 
instead of the real thing. In general things should appear under their real name 
for purposes of knowing where the bugs are and what you're really using.

It's like asking for Coke and getting Pepsi, no matter how great someone else 
thinks it is, it's not what you asked for, wanted, or thought it was. ;-(
