Do I err in my supposing that the upstream bugs should be reported from
Debian distro. by its maintainers?

Or I should report it myself?

Yes. I have found the solution already w/ the package. Yet it helps
flac w/ its appropriate param.s not at all. :o)

I thnk the developers have either to remove the options from flac
manual OR fix the bug.
