ends beyond sector 2^32. Now refuses to create such partitions.

0.8.10 (?/??/2014):
-------------------
+- Fixed bug that caused incorrect partition number to be displayed by
+ sgdisk in error messages when the user specified a non-existent partition
+ for inclusion in a hybrid MBR or conversion to a conventional MBR.
+
- Fixed new (in 0.8.9) bug that caused a failure to create more than one
hybridized partition when creating a hybrid MBR.
-- Fixed bug that caused gdisk to create hybridized partitions that ended
- above the 2^32 sector point with incorrect end values. The program now
- refuses to create such hybridized partitions at all.
+- Fixed bug that caused gdisk and sgdisk to create hybridized partitions
+ that ended above the 2^32 sector point with incorrect end values. The
+ program now refuses to create such hybridized partitions at all. (A case
+ could be made for allowing creation of such partitions so long as the
+ start sector is below 2^32 and the size is under 2^32, but as a practical
+ matter, many OSes flake out with such partitions, so I'm erring on the
+ side of caution on this one.)
