I looked into this once.  I seem to recall that there is an MMC command 
that does this.  While there is no explicit API in libcdio to support 
locking the drive, you can use the generic MMC API that libcdio exports 
to accomplish this.

This probably doesn't help you much if you're not a C programmer. 
Unfortunately, I'm a little busy with graduate school, so I could not 
hope to help you with this before Christmas break.
