That gives the same as the GROUP= currently does (which in my mind sorda
give that that bug is already fixed ....)
We (gentoo) wants GROUP=cdrw, which means that either:
1) Call cdsymlinks.sh in a rule like mentioned bug
2) write a different script to return cdrw if it is a
cdrw/dvdrw/whatever. I did not however want to do this, as it would
mean maintaining the same code in two places.

It only does that if its a cdrom, and you usually do not have that many
cdroms, do you ?
