Sounds complicated and risky.  Perhaps a reinstallation of OSX, post
partitioning and Gentoo installation, is best in the end.  Thanks for
the input!

That's the way I shrinked my Mac OS X partition.  Worked
pretty well, but it is a risk.

The Gentoo LiveCDs has such a parted installed, but it
worked out, that these version could not resize HFS+ any
more.  I think the last CD that worked well was a 1.4
LiveCD.
