 The only patch we have in pkgsrc does this:
 
 -       if( system("@MOUNT@ -t iso9660 ".esc_shell($device)." $mntpt") != 0)
 +       if( system("@MOUNT@ -t cd9660 ".esc_shell($device)." $mntpt") != 0)
 
 which isn't going to make the difference between DVDs working and not
 working.
 
 In any event, bsiegert@ wants to remove the package, so unless there's
 a reason to avert that it's all going to become moot.
