The files are typically slightly larger than FLAC 1.3.0's -0 
setting (compression level 0), usually within 1%. This means 
that there is a difference of 6 percentage points (10%) with the 
default -5 setting in filesize.

I just updated to the latest version (which is rumoured to be 
the RTM), it has the same issue. That means it won't be fixed 
before the release. I wouldn't bother though, I think it's 
already quite a feat Microsoft decided to implement both 
decoding as well as encoding support.
