I encountered the same with external fat32 disk.

I tried it couple of times and got one more error:
gpartedbin: malloc.c:3695: _int_malloc: Assertion `(unsigned long) (size) >= 
(unsigned long) (nb)' failed.

----
I tested upstream gparted from git (acbf08ce0c291348ba6900d440e9249f842180db), 
it gave different error, so I'm not sure is it affected or not. (Bad FAT: 
unterminated chain for \FSCK0052.REC.)

git clone git://git.gnome.org/gparted
cd gparted
./autogen.sh
./configure --prefix=`pw`/build
make
make install
cd build/sbin
./gparted

----


Finally I got partition shrank with:
sudo dosfsck -w -r -l -a -v -t /dev/sdc1
and using parted.
