Disc IDs with last track 2:30 shorter

After crossing over several CD TOCs, which are 2:30 shorter then others submitted, and some edits explaining this, I find it should be brought out to stop further submitting of wrong Disc IDs.
I just link to chain of edits I've done with:
http://musicbrainz.org/show/edit/?editid=8937613
http://musicbrainz.org/show/edit/?editid=10192964
http://musicbrainz.org/show/edit/?editid=10224567

I guess there are much more of such.
It seem to be a problem with some drives (I don't know if it's hardware of software) and we should identify which with.
If someone had such problem, it would be nice to post info here (drive model, software used), perhaps it could be fixed with Picard improvement to handle such for example.
I could post it to bug tracker of course, but I think we should find out first, if it's a fix (software problem) or improvement (hardware problem) with the help of people, who have crossed over such thing personally.
For others I'd like to ask to check all these suspicious Disc IDs (last track 2:30 shorter, perhaps +/- 2 sec), and clean the DB of this junk (or can someone find any use of them? does the problem occur random?).
I hope this will do some good. =))

It's a software problem. What program and OS are you using to submit
such discids? 2:30 is the length of the gap between audio and video
session on a multi-session CD, and this seems to be incorrectly
subtracted from the length of the last track.
