Formatting them as non-root (with cdrwtool 1.0.0b3) seems broken too:

nix@hades 129 /home/nix% cdrwtool -d /dev/cdrw -q < /dev/null
using device /dev/cdrw
7294KB internal buffer
setting write speed to 4x
wait_cmd: Bad address
Command failed: bb 00 ff ff 02 c0 00 00 00 00 00 00 - sense 00.00.00
set speed
can't unlock door

It seems to work as root (well, it's got further but the lengthy
formatting process is still continuing).
