I could be misunderstanding the problem here, I think we've had trouble
with the 32/63 thing in other respects too, such as getting corrupted
disk images when someone uses something other than parted (or uses
parted but doesn't change the sector size) to resize the partitions.

Would it be worth fixing it both ways?
