No on these boxes the symlink wasn't created no matter who logged in notably RH 7.0 7.1 off the top of my head. I've also had this happen with MDK on the odd occasion. Yes MDK does do it correctly but rather than re-install I just did what was missed. (MDK 8.0 and 8.1 did this on several machines.) But on the couple that did have to be reinstalled for whatever reason (hdd gone south etc) the next time it was created. I've found it to be a random oops not a reproducible bug. But after close to 3000 OS installs in the last year alone, I've seen a few of them.

Buchan,
I've had this problem on some systems (with a number of distro's) and
the problem was that the correct symlink in /dev isn't created. The
default in eject is to eject /dev/cdrom but if the real device for
your ide-scsi is say scd0 ejecting /dev/cdrom won't work. Try this if
for example your real device is /dev/scd0 then type eject scd0 if
it ejects then you have the symlink problem. Two fixes either create a
little script that does the eject scd0 or create the symlink.

Try the latest kernel and see how it works... also try to remove the acpi=off to see if it's the thing that confuses the system... Thomas

Hmm, that was the case, but now I cannot eject it (even as root after
unmounting)!
