Hmm, to build the CDDB²  we have to use the only as binaries
available
http://www.ibiblio.org/tkan/download/cddb2supp/3.3.0/lib/linux-x86-libc5/cddb2supplib.tar.gz
but we won't ;)

The pure cddb as in versions 2.* is used by
http://www.ibiblio.org/tkan/download/xmcd/3.3.2/src/xmcd-3.3.2.tar.gz

so I don't see a reason to not upgrade the package yet?

Could someone please check xmcd from my small repos at

deb http://www.lxtec.de/debarchiv binary-i386/
deb-src http://www.lxtec.de/debarchiv sources/

It is build without lame and faac encoding yet, but why not?
