[Flac] error in files after removing padding

I want to remove padding from flac files, so I ran the following command on
files with artwork in them:

metaflac --dont-use-padding --remove --block-type=PADDING [filename]


but now my files are corrupt. Verifying them reports a stream error and
they won't decode.

If the files had no picture data in them, the remove padding command did
not corrupt them.

Is this a bug, or did I run something bad with metaflac?

Thanks,
Scott
