Could you be more specific?  That partitioner is dead simple, so I

there were many bugs there's probably been nobody to use it and
encounter them for a decade.

Yeah: the SFC partitioner isn't under an LGPL-friendly license, so
unless you add --disable-strict-lgpl to your configure line, it still
gets dropped for that reason.
