This is not correct, just look at the CVS logs. Some work was done 
recently towards the 1.2.3 release, including a whole bunch of patches 
triaging. The cdrdao codebase is very stable and the list of known valid 
bugs is small.

Not anymore, 1.2.3rc2 no longer uses libscg, and ships a number of 
native backends. The linux backend now uses the sg interface directly.
