sabnzbd falsely marking download as "Failed"

SABnzbd 0.7.16 is marking a download as failed although only the smallest .par2-file is broken.
All the other data- and par2-files are valid and working (verified with SFV and a recheck with the other PAR2-files with MultiPAR).

The debug-log has no errors or warnings.

At first MultiPAR is marking the first .par2 as good and all other par2s as "useless", but after verifying the data-parts, the first .par2 is found to be broken, while all the other par2-volumes are valid.

The NZB and a screenshot of MultiPAR have been sent via PN.

EDIT: After turning on the multi-core version of par2, the download is verified successfully. So this seems to be a bug in the classic par2-program.

There's something weird about this post.
Gone from the major servers and heavily damaged on the more obscure ones.
I'm currently on the road, but I will look into this one later.

FWIW, I got it without any missing articles with UseNetServer and Astraweb as backup.

Good to hear.
I have noticed in the past that sometimes damage to par2 files triggers erratic behavior in the par2 program.
Sometimes essential parts of a par2 file are damaged in such a way that the par2 program doesn't recognize them anymore.
