Description:
Disabling SQL mode NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION  only works for DDL issued locally on the node. If a slave has  NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION disabled and a CREATE TABLE comes from its master which specifies an engine not available on the slave, replication breaks.

How to repeat:
On the slave, disable InnoDB and restart replication.
On the master, issue a create table.... engine InnoDB.
Replication breaks on the slave with error 1286:

Worker 7 failed executing transaction '' at master log dbstat02.034383, end_log_pos 99530607; Error 'Unknown storage engine 'innodb'' on query. Default database: 'rick'. Query: 'create table ttable2 (id int not null auto_increment primary key) engine=innodb'

Creating same table directly on slave behaves correctly as per manual description.

After checking the source code, it appears that the SQL_MODE used on slave for execution of statements comes from the master's binary log.  Therefore, the SQL_MODE needs to be changed on master. It would be nice to update the manual to reflect the above, as the behaviour is otherwise not what one would expect.

We are also getting the same error once in a while. We have MySQL 5.6.32 on Windows Server 2012 R2 x64bit OS.

Is there any workaround for this?
