For Freevo: yes, it uses the CDROM module. But this module doesn't look to be
perfect because Freevo has a fallback for FreeBSD and another for... Linux
(because of missing CDROM.CDROM_DRIVE_STATUS?):

I don't see why these modules should be auto-generated. The constants
in the modules hardly ever change and are also not affected by architecture
differences (e.g. Mac OS X, Solaris, etc.) AFAICT.
If you think they need to be auto-generated,

Did you read comments of this issue and my email thread on python-dev? There
are differents examples:

Victor, please accept that this entire infrastructure was originally added
because there was a need for it, and the need did not go away. It's probably
relevant only for a minority of applications, but you would make this
minority's lifes

For example, Lib/plat-linux/IN.py was regenerated at Nov 23 12:09:28 2002
(revision c2604d69aa5d) for the last time, and nobody complained. These modules
are inconsistent. For example, the IN module
