Yes that is true, because people had so gotten used to "cdrecord",
that the wodim project simply took a version of cdrecord and hacked
it into wodim. I have read enough technical jargon about how wrong
wodim is, and how right Schilling's cdrecord is. But the bottom line
to the user is that it has to work.
Or fail gracefully, i.e. in this case fail before it starts writing
media that'll end up being a coaster. I suggest filing a bug.
