It looks as if you are a victim of the FUD spread by Debian :-(
There always was only one cdrecord source code since it's
creation in late 1995. The first DVD support code was added in
February 1998 but could not be made OpenSource due to an NDA.
Anyway, the DVD support in cdrecord code became OpenSource long
before the fork "wodim" was created.
Why don't you inform yourself from the official cdrecord website?

If you observe the net, you will see that there are many people
who report that they use cdrecord to write DVDs because growisofs
is not working for them......
