Well, something seems to have corrupted those messages, probably
something aggressively line-wrapping.  Aside from that, this looks a
*lot* like the reason one of "my" machines is still on 1.2.

With a 1.2G kernel, the CD drive works fine playing audio discs.  With
anything newer - at least anything newer I've tried - I get errors very
much like the above.  I keep hoping someone will fix whatever got
broken in the SCSI code, but so far nobody has.  (I also keep hoping
for the time to check out successively newer kernel source trees until
I find the change that broke it, but time is my scarcest resource.)
