It's not a bug, it's a feature! :-P

The problem is that compiling cdrdao only works with fink (no binaries 
available), and it requires the fink environment and the Apple Developer SDK 
to be installed. I don't think I'll be able to create a distributable binary, 
but I'll try again. If we disable CD-writing, we should export each CD track 
into a separate wave file, otherwise it won't be possible to burn the tracks 
with a standalone application (if several tracks are written to the same wave 
file).
