We know what the problem is; the problem is that the original author
of this program doesn't have much time, and I don't know much C.
Maybe you can take a look at it?

Well, this is a feature rather than a bug... but obviously this
dones't work for LVM. find-parts needs a command line option to
change the behaviour.
