Sorry for an incredible delayed answer.

Version 1.6.21 of libparted is old and this bug is supposed
to be corrected however tha faq says "Fixed some time ago;
this has recently cropped up again, however" so I am not
sure. It would be good if you could retest this again with
either the latest gparted livecd
(http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php)
or if you compile gparted-0.2.5 + parted-1.7.1 yourself.
