Martin Panter added the comment:
This behaviour seems to be documented, although it is not very explicit, and a
bit surprising to me. See the third note at the end of
<https://docs.python.org/3/library/struct.html#byte-order-size-and-alignment>:
“align the end . . . with a repeat count of zero”, and the example
>>> pack('llh0l', 1, 2, 3)
b'\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x02\x00\x03\x00\x00'
