This was done during a housekeeping action for the new
-minfo option.
This is what -minfo currently prints for an appendable multi-border DVD+R:
Disk Is not erasable
data type: standard
disk status: incomplete/appendable
session status: empty
BG format status: none
first track: 1
number of sessions: 5
first track in last sess: 5
last track in last sess: 5
Disk Is not unrestricted
Disk type: DVD, HD-DVD or BD
Track Sess Type Start Addr End Addr Size
==============================================
1 1 Data 0 655 656
2 2 Data 2704 5647 2944
3 3 Data 7696 9599 1904
4 4 Data 11648 12255 608
5 5 Blank 14304 2295103 2280800
Last session start address: 11648
Last session leadout start address: 12256
Next writable address: 14304
Remaining writable size: 2280800
Maybe, I should go back to the old string at least for the -atip
code as e.g. non-MMC drives stilll use the old string.

If this stays even after the disk was reloaded, then you found a firmware bug
in this drive that would cause cdrecord to be unable to format the medium.
