Bringing up a very old thread here, but I've just had the same problem in Debian Jessie and found this thread while looking for an answer.
Comparing my output and JohnPiers', I noticed that it was the final track both times that failed to split.
A workaround is to create a dummy final track with INDEX set to the total length of the original .flac file (from file properties).
The error then appears when the command tries to split the dummy track, but by then all the real tracks have been split sucessfully.
