Maarten,
char-major-97 is the parport driver that cdrecord seems
to be trying in vain to load. I have seen old versions
of cdrecord get confused and end up sending a parport 
command to the sg interface. That was fixed over a year
ago.

I just put a small check in my sg driver to look for
1 byte transfers and cdrecord 1.9 didn't issue any
on my box.

If you want I can forward a patched version of
sg that announces 1 byte transfers.
