I am using version 0.8.4.  Close enough to the latest I suppose.  I've opened
a bug about this issue and below is the response I got from one of the
developer.

Comment:

 av_write_trailer() can lead to updates of the area written in the header 
earlier for some formats.
 Also replacing the context like you do is not possible, theres state in it 
that will be lost and lead to all kinds of odd issues.
 You could implement your own URLProtocol or io context but probably what 
you really want is to use pipes and a format that works with non seekable 
output, mpeg-ps comes to mind here

 So i think the issue is in how you use avio_open_dyn_buf() and not in 
ffmpeg, if you disagree feel free to reopen and elaborate
