[Parted-maintainers] Bug#536385: Workaround, dainbramage

The new syntax appears to be "linux-swap(old)" or "linux-swap(new)".
This is brain damaged for two reasons: first, it breaks various systems
which use parted in script mode (fai, for example); and second, the
syntax is pretty much designed to bite anyone wrapping a command in a
shell script at least once.

I imagine this came from upstream.  Hope someone will pass along a
suitable awakening.
