You probably haven't looked at actually doing the update. When I was
starting out I thought I'd update cdparanoia. It's less a port and more
a rewrite.

libcdio-paranaoia has a cd-paranoia that will do what you want. edd and
I were vaguely discussing moving folks to using that. The cdio code is
much more portable and, as I recall, the cdio folks took the paranaoia
parts into libcdio. I guess perhaps edd and I should look at retiring
the cdparanoia port in favor of cd-paranoia from libcdio.
