Ok, Graham is right it was not a big deal to reproduce it. The current
code does inded break when a device could not be opened because of
permission problems when libscg scans (to build its list of "intuitive"
SCSI addresses). We had already two cludges to work around this problems,
one was from Andreas Metzler to not scan over all devices when the user
already specified a device name, and another from me to stop looping
forever when exclusiv open fails. However, the last part was only used
conditionaly for atapi devices. With SCSI (eg. a mixture of usb-attached
harddisks and external recorder which I just used), it fails: -scanbus
runs well (because of the endless looping prevention) but opening fails.
Now, I rewrote the code a bit more and ask for comments. It consolidates
the previous workarounds. I consider adding it to the stable branch RSN,
most likely for pre5.
