First I made the above patch. I saw no change in the output (there was no instance of the new printk in the output - but reading the disc worked). Then I made this patch:
--- /usr/src/linux/drivers/ide/ide-cd.c.pre-patch 2004-03-24 08:32:50.000000000 -0600
+++ /usr/src/linux/drivers/ide/ide-cd.c 2004-03-25 16:30:37.000000000 -0600

/* Now try to get the total cdrom capacity. */
stat = cdrom_get_last_written(cdi, &last_written);
if (!stat && last_written) {
+ printk("cdrom: old cap %lu, new cap %lu\n", toc->capacity, last_written);
toc->capacity = last_written;
set_capacity(drive->disk, toc->capacity * sectors_per_frame);
}
and I got this as output:

Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 2043633
with tons more attempt to access beyond end of device messages (and of course reading didn't work). The moral of the story is that the block inside the if statement is resetting the capacity to something smaller, which is causing my problem.
I hope this helps, and let me know if you'd like me to try anything else.
