Under OSX you can ask the open-firmware to do the eject:

Reboot the mac, and WHILE it is rebooting, press the

Code:
<CMD><ALT><O><F>
this will start the open-firmware, at the prompt type

Code:
Eject CD <retunr>
The CD should pop open.

Continue with boot by typing

Code:
mac-boot<return>
Does this help?
