I was able to get an improvement in the difference of audio/video, but it is 
not gone entirely:

mencoder dvd://1 -mc 0 -noskip -sb 1310000000 -endpos 36 -ovc lavc -lavcopts 
vcodec=mpeg4:mbd=1:vbitrate=1800 -oac mp3lame -lameopts br=192 -vf scale 
-zoom -xy 720 -o test.avi

#test.avi
Video stream: 1684.654 kbit/s  (210581 bps)  size: 7580944 bytes  36.000 secs  
900 frames
Audio stream:  221.474 kbit/s  (27684 bps)  size: 1009920 bytes  36.480 secs

using -audio-preload 0.0 (see 
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?s=&forumid=62&threadid=278124) 
in addition seems to improve the length-difference, but as you can see it not 
entirely gone...

#test2.avi
Video stream: 1684.654 kbit/s  (210581 bps)  size: 7580944 bytes  36.000 secs  
900 frames
Audio stream:  221.758 kbit/s  (27719 bps)  size: 997248 bytes  35.976 secs
