When in doubt or trouble, go for the latest port cdrtools-3.00_2 .
Also, do not include atapicam_load="YES" as it may conflict with SCSI generic
drivers.

First, update your ports collection tree with 'portsnap'.

Then compile cdrtools port - if OK, then remove its package, and then install
the port.

Next, see what cdrecord discovers (your CD ROM drive):
# cdrecord -scanbus
