Would you humor me and get the isosize of the image from isoinfo, then
try to read the image with 
  "dd if=/dev/cdrom bs=2k count={ISOSIZE} of=copy.iso" 
and see if reading just the correct amount will in fact get the last
data? Note that this is another of those "sometimes works" things, your
firmware may really not allow you to avoid readahead, but I have several
drives (one CD one CD-R) which do work this way.

Curiosity only, but easier than doing md5sum on all the files after
mounting the CD.

I think the issue is pretty well defined, with no pad some drives can't
read to the end, and with pad a few drives will read the pad if you just
copy all the drive can read. And use of DAO vs TAO to record makes a
difference with some burners as well.
