I tried K3B and it does use cdrecord.  However it doesn't seem to have
the memory leak.

The difference?  I was running cdrecord from the command line as root
(sudo) before, k3b I ran as my normal user.  So I ran cdrecord from the
command line as my normal user - no more memory leak.  It gave some
warnings about not having privileges to set priorities, RR-scheduler,
and mlockall, but seemed to work fine anyway.  Strange ...
