Nevermind. I have incorrectly assumed that runCmd() sets up PATH in a
way that enables running *-native tools. However, the tests ended up
host parted binary rather than the one built by parted-native. Worked
fine on my Fedora based build systems where parted is installed by
default.

I will post a v4 of the series (just the patches that are not in master
yet).
