The problem in this file is that after the last valid frame TSIZ there's this:  
MP3ext MP3ext MP3ext MP3ext MP3ext MP3ext MP3ext MP3ext MP3ext MP3ext  
Which is not valid, it should be all zero bytes instead.

You can fix it with the hex editor or try changing a tag with another program, maybe it corrects it.  
Maybe Florian wants to do a workaround.
