There is no such bug in libscg.

There is nothing that has been freezed. If you have the apropriate privs to send SCSI commands to any SCSI device on the system, you will not come across your problem.

Now let us try to talk about real problems or stop this discussion.

It appears that you are wanting to blame all of these problems on Linux and refuse to accept the possibility that cdrecord/libscg is doing things incorrectly from a Linux perspective. If you want to "talk about real problems" you must accept this possibility.

Why should I have to give privileges to send SCSI commands to any device in the system just to write CDs? The answer, it would appear, is that cdrecord is messing with things (i.e. /dev/sg interface) it has no business messing with in current Linux systems, since that interface should not be necessary for the purpose of cdrecord.
