dd absolutely will fail to copy the last block of the source if it
isn't exactly the blocksize and you didn't specify conv=sync, and it
will return a zero status when doing so.  It appears you've convinced
yourself otherwise, but for anyone else reading this thread, be aware:
conv=sync is required to copy the last part of the source if it's
smaller than the blocksize.
