Well, the problem seems to be that the 1.3.2 atapi code will always use a
timeout of 10s, wich is too small for some ATAPI commands like Fixating.

Any chances to try -current or 1.3.3 + IDE patches ?
This should be fixed.
For 1.3.3 you don't need to upgrade the whole machine, a 1.3.3 kernel can
work with a 1.3.2 userland. You can even just try the precompiled GENERIC
kernel in ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/i386/ide-1.3.3/.
