True, although I wonder how many systems have a /media/cdrom
directory and continue to use /cdrom.

Anyway, parsing /etc/fstab should not be that hard, no?

if grep -q '[[:space:]]/media/cdrom' /etc/fstab; then
  if grep -q '[[:space:]]/cdrom' /etc/fstab; then
    # use /cdrom
  else
    # use /media/cdrom
  fi
else
  # use /cdrom
fi

This is conservative...
