make check in libcdio

 know that a 'make check' which does network tests is not allowed in
a spec file, but what about a 'make check' which tries to access the
CDROM?

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=164266

libcdio does about 13 tests during 'make check' and one test is using a
CD if it can find one in the drive. So should this 'make check' also be
disabled? If there is no CD in the drive nothing happens, but if there
is a CD in the drive the check tries to access it.
Is a test trying to access the hardware of the buildsystem as bad as a
test trying to access the network?
