Not at the moment.  I think trying to implement it as a generic SCSI
interface would be rather overkill, as there is only one unit (which
is of a known type), and the arbitration is really simple.  I haven't
looked at the MI cd driver, so maybe it's possible to use it with a
simpler interface...

My plan is to first just hack together something that works and check
that in.  Once the hw dependant stuff is there, you (or onyone else
who has a better grasp of the internal workings of NetBSD than me) are
welcome to help redo the other things "right".  But for now, only
minimum effort.
