If a given process doesn't get killed even with signal 9, then it is probably the case that the process is in the D state and the kernel is waiting for some device (or IO) to fulfill a request. Are you trying to create the image of a badly scratched CD/DVD? What if you do the same operations without dvdisaster? Say, what if you create the image with ddrescue? Do you still get uninterruptible processes? Unfortunately, I can't reproduce this myself and I see that Michael has already tagged this as unreproducible and moreinfo, which is certainly appropriate here, as we have too few details to continue debugging.
