PHP Backup Maker
PHP Backup Maker is a smart PHP backup solution. The script reads a given source directory (with its subdirectories) and then creates a set of directories filled with the content of the source directory, arranged in groups to fit a given capacity. It can be used to create CD sets for backups. It also supports ISO image creation, direct CD and DVD burning via cdrecord/growisofs, backup of files bigger than media capacity (splitting), automatic file index creation, and more.

Fixed in CVS anyway ;)
Re: Support for withdrawn options?
Why didn't you just fill a bug report on that issue on project's SF.net bugtracker?
Support for withdrawn options?
It is bad to see that the project added "support"
for mkisofs options that did never work correctly
and have been documented completely wrong by
the original author Eric Youngdale?
-volset-size has been limited to be no more
than 1 in order to make mkisofs ISO-9660
compliant on July 17th. This is 17 days ago....
A problem like this could have been avoided by
checking recent cdrtools announcements.
