Unfortunately, no. It -should- work, but the extra DPRINTK's tell a further
story of the drives stupidity.

Upon running 
 % pktsetup 0 /dev/hde ; mkudffs /dev/pktcdvd/0'
I get the following output:

Feb 24 19:30:31 ever kernel: pktcdvd: inserted media is DVD+RW
Feb 24 19:30:31 ever kernel: pktcdvd: Max drive write speed 11080kB/s

All seems well and good. However, upon then issuing 
 % mount /dev/pktcdvd/0 /mnt/dvdrw -t auto -o noatime,rw

.
. (and so on)

I'm somewhat confused as to what could be happening here, but my first
guess is that after being spun up to high speed for reading in
pkt_iosched_process_queue, the firmware promptly forgets whatever it knew
about the media speed. Perhaps it only stores a single speed value
internally, so calling pkt_set_speed (pd, pd->write_speed, pd->read_speed)
with a larger value of read_speed sets them both. And afterwards the drive
reports this as the maximum media speed on future opens? If you are curious
as to who would curse the market with such a buggy product, the drive is a
BenQ Q60.

Curiously, after the failed mount, running dvd+rw-mediainfo returns:
