This bug was fixed in the package parted - 2.3-6ubuntu2

---------------
parted (2.3-6ubuntu2) oneiric; urgency=low

  * When creating a legacy MBR on Apple systems, only ever mark an existing
    partition as a fake protective partition if it is the first partition
    and it starts at LBA 1, otherwise GRUB and the Linux kernel respectively
    will fail to treat the disk as GPT; if there is no partition fitting
    these criteria, then fall back to creating a fake protective partition
    (LP: #837681).
