There is a simple reason for this problem:

I added DVD support to cdrecord in February 1998. The original DVD support code 
is (as you can see) 12 years old and I would call it mature. Wodim dumped the 
original DVD support code and replaced it by some half baken code written by a 
guy from Mandriva. This code does not even read the media parameters from the
blank media (as you can prove by calling cdrecord -atip vs. wodim -atip).
