Drat, there must be a rounding error in humanize_number(). I'll change 
partedit to round down to the maximum possible size. Was the partition 
you were trying to delete when you got the error message currently mounted?

The text messages are LORs. The kernel on the image has WITNESS enabled, 
and installing a system seems to expose a great number of them.

That is some funny autosizing behavior in libdialog. Not sure how to 
change it.
