Ok, I've read that and I agree that the behaviour I'm seeing matches
that documentation

However, I still don't understand why FLAC__stream_decoder_process_single()
returns false when an error has occurred, but true when the read callback 
returns FLAC__STREAM_DECODER_END_OF_STREAM? Why isn't end of stream treated
like any other error?
