Alrighty, despite my fdisk woes a bit of "printf debugging" has revealed the test failure is simply that c->errstr doesn't contain the message the test expects (instead errstr is an empty string). Easy enough to work around: I'll put a patch together in a few minutes & drop it on here for folks to verify.
