Kernel version is 2.4.1.  For versions of cdrecord later than 1.6.1
(1.8.1 through the latest 1.10 alpha verified), attempting to burn a
CD results in a SCSI error of some kind.  Here's some representative
output from a "dummy" burn session with cdrecord-1.9:

As I recall, things work just fine with a real SCSI CD burner, so I
think this behavior is limited to the ide-scsi flavor of things.  If
anyone has a clue as to what's really happening here, a fix or workaround
would be appreciated.  In the meantime, I'll continue to use the older
software (xcdroast-0.96e with cdrecord-1.6.1).  Thanks!
