I've been digging through Google, and asking around on IRC, and haven't been 
able to get that information. Thanks a lot ;-)

By the way, I'm writing some code to read the TOC by scanning the whole CD and 
decoding the Q subchannel (I've been motivated by a copy of an audio CD which 
doesn't play properly in my audio CD player, and I want to find out why). 
Would that be helpful for cdparanoia ?
