I don't know much on this subject. I just based my work on another cd player 
application which was only for Linux. Sorry for those of you who are using 
other unices.
If it is just a matter of header, that sould be easy to fix in a future 
release, but I need to gather pieces of information (contributions / 
suggestions will be appreciated).

On another hand, I found a bug with conflicting mount/umount which blocks the 
CD tray while bbcd is running (even if it is not playing). That will require 
deep changes in bbcd... and that will need time...

Anyway, thanks for your feedback.
