Mac OS X and grip

Hi,

Last year, in the thread at
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=13452067,
someone asked about getting Mac OS X to work with grip.

The problem appears to be that grip won't recognise a disk.

So, here's what I've done:

1.	I verified cdparanoia works.

2.	So I thought, hrm, let's try abcde.  It works, provided that
you do "diskutil unmount /dev/disk1".  (UNIX users will know to do
this, but Mac users might not: You can find out what disk your CD is
really on with "mount" when you have a disc in the drive.  If it's
actually working with, e.g., iTunes, then that command will tell you
for sure where it is.)  abcde _will not_ work when the disk is
mounted.  

3.	So, I sez, try the same thing with grip (as a mostly UNIX
geek using the Mac because, on my laptop, everything Just Works for a
change, I didn't know you had to umount the music CD.  What an idea. 
BTW, for new Mac users: _don't_ use umount.  The eject button doesn't
work afterwards.  You need to use the diskutil command.  It appears
to be a wrapper to other things, but I haven't figured out what they
are, and don't really have the patience to fiddle with it that long). 
No dice.  With the disk unmounted, grip still says

Checking for a new disc
CDStat said no disc

Now, it _looks_ to me like cdparanoia had to be patched to handle the
MacOS routines.  I see a patch in the Darwin Ports collection.  So
the next question is, what should I look at to figure out what the
problem is here?

Any pointers appreciated.
