The updated UDF kernel source seems to work with 11.0-Current. Moves me a
little forward :)

#1 using existing UDF driver:

[1019] > mount_udf /dev/cd0 /br
mount_udf: /dev/cd0: Invalid argument

#2 using 'new' UDF driver:

[1020] > mount_udf2 /dev/cd0 /br
[1021] > cd /br
[1022] > ls
AACS            BDMV            CERTIFICATE

I'll post the code if anyone else wants to tinker with it.

Now to see about actually playing the disc...
