IMHO it isn't correct approach to avoid use of the tool _instead_ of
fixing
it. This way, all your tools will be broken one day ;)

Since this is a very old and well known issue, and it seems there is no
one left solcing/developing this tool, it should be removed from the
source tree for the time it is to said broken.
There are times when 'ls' doesn't work quite right for me. I propose
removing that from the FreeBSD tree ASAP. In fact, anything that hasn't
had a commit in a year should be removed, since it is obviously
abandoned, not working, and useless. Obviously.
Or, we can not say silly things like, "you didn't fix X for me, so it
should be removed from the FreeBSD tree."
I agree completely. I see 2 points here:
1) it seems that problem is in /sys/dev/ata/atapi-cd.c code rather then
in burncd utility (but I'm not 100%-sure here);
2) burncd still does _all_ things which it's useful for: it really burns CDs,
erases and fixates them. It just incorrectly waits for completion of
erase/fixate operation. Waiting some extra time after drive finishes the
write process and pressing Ctrl+C works around this problem and results
in correctly erased/fixed media. It would be unwise to throw away a dirty
screwdriver instead of washing it ;)
