FWIW, I'm in favor of #3, and practically, the other bigger distros that have switched back to cdrtools are fatter targets for any legal action. Furthermore, who exactly would be doing the suing? If it's the GNU, then their goal would be to fix the licence problems, not collect money. If that happened, put it all in AUR and wash our hands.
I'm quite convinced by this argument myself. Who would be suing us? FSF wouldn't give us a hard time, and Herr Schilling certainly doesn't intend to do so. I think there's also no question that cdrtools is technically superior to cdrkit. There's practically no reason for even debating this.
