Yep. It's in the Debian bug tracking system a couple of times here:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=106757&repeatmerged=yes

and here

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=105758&repeatmerged=yes

I think the only work around is to either go full-blown unstable/sid
or stick with potato, or, of course, wait 'til the proper versions
fall in to testing. And lastly, you could just use the command line
utilities mkisofs and cdrecord which, I believe, is all that xcdroast
really does.

I think I tried upgrading to the tix library in sid but it had so many
other sid dependencies that I didn't feel it was worth it.
