I'm pretty sure (don't have the code and couldn't read it if I had it) 
that shntool's "fix" module doesn't use flac's --sector-align option but 
has its own routines.  For one thing, shntool can fix .wav files or 
anything else it can processs, and for another, when --sector-align had 
that buffer clearing error a few versions ago, shntool fix didn't 
exhibit it.

So if I'm right about that, Flac Front-End's call to flac --sector-align 
needs it, but shntool (and Trader's Little Helper, which overlays 
shntool) shouldn't be affected if --sector-align is dropped from flac.
