I think it is expected that this is the way things work in open-source
projects. For me if not others, the times when you have been active,
more than make up for the inactive times ;-)

Excellent!  0.76 is strictly a bugfix release and in 0.77, I (if not I
hope others) will start to make headway on UDF support which will
probably take a long while and will either mean the next release will
be some time off and/or probably make the next libcdio releases
unstable in some way.  Given this, for those distributions want to get
the most bang for the effort, I think 0.76 then would be the version
of libcdio to synchronize against.

The prototype for poptGetNextOpt() of version 1.10 does declare the
return type to be int, not char. So you are correct that what is there
is wrong, and your patch has been applied. Many thanks.

You are the expert here. If you want to make the changes needed to CVS
by all means do so. Or send a patch.
