As discussed with Otavio on IRC, this seems to be a bug in libparted. I 
will see if I can provide a test script that demonstrates the case.

I am cloning this BR rather than reassigning it because it looks like 
there may be other issues as well:
- start sector of partitions may change even when not resizing (see:
  https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/parted/+bug/32529)
- even if I correct the physical partition and ntfsresize runs well after
  that, Windows Vista still refuses to boot
