cdrecord (including 1.6a9) is using illegal code, which makes it impossible
to compile on all versions of linux.
small example, found in lib/format.c
------------------------
va_list rargs;
rargs = va_arg(args, va_list);
------------------------
this is possible on linux/x86 because va_list is a void *
on linux/ppc however, va_list is a struct, and handled by va_ppc.h
and this makes compilation fail.
format() will need to be rewritten without a recursive use of va_list.
