Let us make a test:
If you are interested in a modification on cdrtools, send a list
of descriptions on patches wher the following constraints apply:
- They fix a bug verifiable bug in cdrtools
That means an unmodified cdrtools has a self caused problem
that could be avoided by the patch
- They add _generally_ _useful_ features.
- They do not break any other supported platform
