I recently acquired a DVR-216-DBK Pioneer SATA burner. With my old 
burner, a DVR-110D,  I am able to burn a DVD. With the DVR-216DBK, I'm 
not, it stops always at 98%, no matter which speed I burn at.

My motherboard is a ASUS P5Q-EM, I have 8GB of ram and am running Gentoo 
Linux. I've tried both cdrkit and cdrtools.
DVR-216-DBK Fails, connected to ICH10R AHCI SATA controller
DVR-110D Succeeds, connected to Marvell 6101 PATA_MARVELL controller

I've located other people who seem to be experiencing the same thing:

This seems to me to point to a problem with the AHCI driver's 
interaction with the drive.

Attached is lspci -k and debug output from K3B:
