You win the bet :-)

'Twould be nice if you could update the code. If nothing else, this oddity will rais questions if we have unrelated problems in future.

Parted is a bit of a strange beast, and doesn't really care what you label the partition when it reports what filesystem type it is. Therefore, if you ask parted about the same disk (parted /dev/cciss/c0d0 print), I'll bet it'll say it's a "linux-swap" partition. ;-)
I'll take a look at the code to see if it makes sense to make a change, too. I could have parted use swap instead of ext2 when creating partitions specifically for use with swap.
Cheers, -Brian
