The detailed tests in my previous post confirm that the 810 parted is
not updating the MBR with the partition information needed by apple
intel macs, resulting in the bug.

I repeat here my proposed solution, which was at the end.

Solution:

The refit package should be part of the installation, and a user option 
provided after partitioning to sync MBR for intel mac MBR loaders. (Not 
necessary for efi/gpt loaders).
This will improve the install/restart experience for intel apple mac users.
It will still be necessary to run gptsync after any re-partitioning.

But preferably revert to the previous partitioner version for apple
intel macs, unless there are good reasons not to do so.
