Apparently, I'm going senile. I thought I had tried the -t option to mount,
but apparently I had not. *sigh*
Our app will still need to be re-written to handle the change in syntax from
4.0F to 5.1B, but I wanted to clarify the situation for anyone who would be
searching the archives for this.
Thanks to Alan Davis for the reply below, and to others who have replied as
well.

Actually a link /will/ work - the behavior change is in that mount can't
automatically determine the file system type so you have to do :
/sbin/mount -t cdfs /dev/cdrom /mnt
An alternative is to use mknod to create a "real" device file - but that
also requires the -t switch.
