you wnt to regression test the library, or the parted frontend too ? 

We could have a set of special library test programs, which we would run on a
set of disk images of each different partition table formats. Not sure how we
can handle huge disk images though, so i think we would not be able to test
the kind of breakage involved with big disks, unless we use files-with-holes
or whatever those are called.
