It may be that this has been forgotten in cdrecord's code (it was planned ;-)

if it works with other drives, then other drives do not follow the worst 
possible firmware documented by the MMC standard.

Looks like cdrecord needs some additional code to verify that a write command 
does not cross a layer boundary. BTW: this is not easy to implement in a clean 
way!
