dvd+rw-tools 5.10.4.5.4 are available for download at usual location,
http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/. This update comprises mostly
changes based on feedback from GUI front-end developers. Besides those
update addresses following issues:

- NEC multi-format firmware timeouted performing OPC on some media;
- when DVD-RW Restricted Overwrite procedure was applied to Linux kernel
equipped with DVD+RW kernel patch (some distributions include it),
volume descriptors were not [under certain circumstances] copied at
first take, but it worked second time;
- FreeBSD fdescfs inconvenience: if devfs is mounted, fdescfs was
expected to be mounted too;
- -overburn inconvenience: if -overburn option is misspelled, an
iso-image was dumped in the current working directory;

As for Linux 2.6. Last ide-cd SG_IO issue (see the above URL for further
details) was finally addressed in "last minute" prior first 2.6 cut.
Feel encouraged to [test-]run the toolchain against /dev/hdX(*)
directly, but do fetch 2.6.0-testN or at the very least 2.5.75-bk3.

(*) you have to disengage "ide-scsi route" first; note that cdrecord 2.x
should work with dev=/dev/hdX as well...
