 Besides the change suggested by the reporter, I would also recommend the 
 following pkg-message:
 
 NOTE: This port is no longer installed with SETUID, because it allows 
 non-privileged users to unmount a filesystem. To enable your users to 
 eject the CD-ROM, install security/sudo and enter the following line in 
 /usr/local/etc/sudoers:
 
 %users  ALL=/usr/local/sbin/eject /dev/acd0
