I don't think so... from the typescript you can see I am using 2.0.1
which as far as I know is the latest release version. I also checked
ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord where it seems cdrtools-2.0.1 is the
latest package available for download. I cannot read the German part of
that known problems page, and the English part doesn't seem to cover
this problem. 

Thank you for the reply. Do you think I should now try the alpha
versions? I can surely understand maintaining such software package must
be a lot of work and you are pretty busy. However my current skill level
makes me feel more comfortable with pre-built packages...
