In the past, yes, the Debian 3 ISO mounted fine in Mac OS. But the
etch-m68k ISO shows up as one big audio track, as did your first attempt
at a Debian 9 ISO.
The -iso-level 4 change was an attempt to fix that by bringing m68k into
sync with powerpc (recall that Mac OS was able to mount the Debian 6
powerpc ISO successfully).

Perhaps you fixed the problem by changing from xorrisofs to genisoimage
without patching anything? That's fine with me.
