bug#35715: parted crashed when extended partition doesn't start on physical sector boundary |

Hello developer team.
parted crashed when extended partition doesn't
start on physical sector boundary.
On my older laptop's HDD the extended partition isn't aligned to
4096 bytes boundary but to 512 bytes. This is not really a problem
because extended partition has only one sector in size and the speed
reduction due to unaligned partition is not likely to be noticeable.
parted never should crash when reading such a partition table!
Please fix ASAP because this bug is at least five years old and has
many entries in Google search.
