There's no need - I can confirm the bug is there in 1.1.2 as well.

I've tracked down the bug in the source code and I'll let the developer know. The buffer used to pad the end of the data with zeros is not being entirely cleared - only the first half of the buffer is being cleared.

So until flac 1.1.3 (assuming the bug is fixed) is released I would strongly advise against using the --sector-align option in FLAC. In all cases, the second half the "zero padding" at the end of the last track is not guaranteed to contain zeros.
