OK, heres the problem.

 22834 perl     CALL  ioctl(0x3,CDIOCREADSUBCHANNEL,0xcfbf66d0)
 22834 perl     RET   ioctl -1 errno 22 Invalid argument

man errno say sthe following about error code 22:

     22 EINVAL Invalid argument.  Some invalid argument was supplied.  (For
             example, specifying an undefined signal to a signal(3) or kill(2)
             function).

This might not be fault of disc-cover, but perhaps instead the fault
of p5-Audio-CD-0.04

The abcde port functions perfectly, so we can rule out bad hardware / bad cd.

Basically this port is quite broken, and I do not have the time or
motivation to fix it. Nor is the breakage related to the texlive
package which I am testing.

Unless anyone is willing to take maintainership, I would reccommend it
is removed from the ports tree, especially as it is not really an
important port.
