decoding MP3 (LAME) results in wrong length

Description

What I was trying to accomplish

I was trying to transcode from MP3 to 44.1 kHz, 16-bit stereo WAV file. Since it uses libmp3lame, the output should be equal to the CLI version.

The problem I encountered

The output is too long by 1263 samples.

I've used LAME v3.99.5 aka v3.99r (same es libmp3lame) to transcode a testfile with 441000 samples (10 seconds) to MP3 using this command line:
lame test_tobwen.wav -V 2 test_tobwen.mp3

When decoding it with the same lame version, it's exactly 441000 samples long.
lame --decode test_tobwen.mp3 output_lame.wav

LAME recognizes its own tag and skils encoder+decoder delay (1105 samples) and padding-decoder delay (263) samples.
You can read more about this here: http://mp3decoders.mp3-tech.org/decoders_lame.html

excact command line I was using

ffmpeg -i test_tobwen.mp3 -acodec pcm_s16le output_ffmpeg.wav

full, uncut console output

ffmpeg -v 9 -loglevel 99 -i test_tobwen.mp3 -acodec pcm_s16le output_ffmpeg.wav

Narf, I'm too dumb to calculate. The file is 263 samples too long, that's the exact length of the padding-decoder delay. I think, you missed to strip this?

Component: ffmpegundetermined
Keywords: mp3 added; MP3 LAME audio delay padding removed

Do you believe this is a regression?

Replying to cehoyos:

Do you believe this is a regression?

I have tested versions 0.8, 1.0.1, 1.2, 2.0.2, 2.1, 2.1.3 and this does not seem to be a regression.

Remark: v0.8 didn't remove delays at all, v1.0.1 is missing some data.
