Well, I did pretty much everything you've said, except this:

I believe I've found the relevant section, but I'm not sure of the
proper way to fix it.
## Check if we want to allow growisofs to cross the 4gb boundary
def is4gbsupported(self):
processi = popen2.Popen4("uname -s -r")
status = processi.wait()
if not os.WIFEXITED(status):
return 1
if os.WEXITSTATUS(status) != 0:
return 1
strres = processi.fromchild.readline()[0:-1]
version = re.search(r"Linux (\d+)\.(\d+)\.(\d+)", strres)
if not version: # Non-Linux: allow
return 1
I know nothing about Python (I'm assuming it's a Python script because
it says "Python" at the top of the file :) and don't know exactly what
this is testing for. What exactly are we returning 1 for? I'm guessing
that returning 1 means yes, we do support post-4g, in which case we
want to return 0 for FreeBSD. The quick fix is, of course, to comment
out the whole function and return the correct value. The correct fix is
of course to add a test for FreeBSD.

For now I'm going to assume I want to return 0, quick-fix this script,
and try the new settings.
Thanks again for your help.
Merry Christmas.
