I don't know about the Solaris specials (vold?) but I did basicly the same
to copy my IRIX CDs on a SPRAC ELC running NetBSD:
dd if=/dev/rcd0c of=/spool/cd1.img
cdrecord -v /spool/cd1.img
Even interleaved copy worked. (dumping a new image while burning the last...)

Or use cdrdao. This can do on the fly copies of non ISO9660 CDs.
