Harald - what's the situation here supposed to be currently? 
I thought that we figured something out where:
 
 - All CD burnings open the device with O_EXCL
 - Apps accessing the device otherwise (magicdev, etc.) do nothing
   special

Was going to fix the problem, but I don't see anything in the current
xcdroast package (0.98a13) to open devices O_EXCL.
