A few things: please send a change log.  Parted seems to be using a
GNU'ish type change log style, of course, you could mimic what you
find in the ChangeLog file.  Second, small patches are nice inline.
Finally, consider using the `-p' option with diff so it is trivial to
see what functions you are changing.
