This is because the rc script (/etc/init.d/umountfs) from the new
sysvinit package tries to turn off write caching on IDE devices, which
means that it will process every device under /proc/ide, and since it
tries to access your cd-rom as well, the kernel will try to load the
module for it.
This is a known bug, see
<http://bugs.debian.org/115354> and
<http://bugs.debian.org/115822> for more information.
If it bothers you that much, you'll find solutions for it in both of
the bug reports.
