Hehe :-)
Of course, it was meant as a joke, but it even would have been funnier 
when you knew about that already ;-P

No, I haven't analyzed it at all - but my multi-session fs is really 
"simple" in that regard: it just always using absolute addressing.
That works fine as long as there are not do independent ISO-9660 
sessions on that disk, and I guess that's the case with it. Since I 
would need to be able to differentiate between a multi-session, and a 
single session, I was just too lazy to think about it, after scanning 
through the standard :-)
(as it works for almost every disk)

Unfortunately, it even enters KDL with that CD, IIRC - so it's really 
something that should be fixed.

Adios...
