The Ogg container format allows "chaining" of files by concatenating
them together. A file formed this way is to be decoded in sequence.
FLAC (and other tools built against libflac such as oggenc), however,
just ignore the rest of the streams.

Example:

$ ls -1sh
total 82M
31M 01 d-moll.wav
19M 02 einschlaf.wav
33M 03 wien in E.wav

$ flac --ogg *.wav
01 d-moll.wav: wrote 12455323 bytes, ratio=0,388
02 einschlaf.wav: wrote 8118804 bytes, ratio=0,418
03 wien in E.wav: wrote 14054691 bytes, ratio=0,413

$ cat *.oga > tracks_1-3.oga

$ flac -d tracks_1-3.oga
tracks_1-3.oga: done

$ ls -1sh tracks*
 34M tracks_1-3.oga
 31M tracks_1-3.wav


As can be seen, flac only decoded the first file.
