I think we're talking about 2 different things. It does preserve the flags within the pgs stream, but does not set the forced flag for the track inside the mkv. LAVSplitter needs the latter. I suspect that if LAVSplitter is automatically loading the track, and you have not set the flag with mmg's header editor, then it is probably just loading the first track.
BTW: Another, more recent movie with forced subs: The Tourist.
OT: In MakeMKV, you can always select the option to extract forced subs - if there are none, it will not create the extra track.
