Thank you for the bug report.
This mailing list is a fine place to send it --
in fact, this is the preferred place.
At first glance, I think you will encounter the same problem
even using parted-2.4, which I released just yesterday:
https://savannah.gnu.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=6828
Would you please send me the first 34 sectors of that disk?
I.e., if you run this command
dd if=/dev/sdaf of=sdaf-gpt-header count=34
I'd appreciate a copy of the sdaf-gpt-header file it creates.
That should give me enough information to recreate and debug
the problem.
Actually, with what you've provided, I could probably
construct a GPT header that would provoke the same
failure, but this way is probably significantly faster.
