I just spend 30 minutes searching but I can't find it, I distinctly remember a
discussion though. Too bad the FreeBSD mail archive search sucks (but Google
can't find anything either).

revision 1.34
date: 2001/08/02 08:55:16; author: dirk; state: Exp; lines: +35 -10
Upgrade to cdrtools-1.10 after repository copy from cdrecord.
Add knobs for mkisofs slave port.
is about the only indication I can find of any discussion I could have been
involved with, but the mkisofs port is clearly from 1996 and I didn't run
FreeBSD then :)
Anyway, enough time spent on this non-issue, I'd like the cdrtools bikeshed
red :)
One thing you might want to do is update the handbook though --
*UNTESTED* patch attached (to make this thread a bit more worthwhile).
Cheers,
