I can confirm that with udev 124-8 from Intrepid I see the cdrom closing problem on eject; with udev 124-9 from intrepid-proposed I no longer see the problem. eject, eject -t, and eject -T work as expected, as well as ejecting other block devices.
@Glenn Sullivan: when you say that all fixes do not work for you, does that include the udev package in intrepid-proposed?
