It's ncurses.  Downgrading from 5.6 to 5.5 made the bytes go away:

# env TERM=xterm parted /dev/hda quit | od -a
0000000

After upgrading again, the problem is back:

# env TERM=xterm parted /dev/hda quit | od -a
0000000 esc   [   ?   1   0   3   4   h
0000010


With ncurses-5.5 installed, the tests pass without a hitch:

...
PASS: t0000-basic.sh
...
PASS: t1000-mkpartfs.sh
...
PASS: t2000-mkfs.sh
==================
All 3 tests passed
