It's hard to tell for sure, but I'm going to guess wildly that this is due to the non-breaking space business in partman. http://bugs.debian.org/243373 may be related.

I think you may be right on the spaces being handled badly. Here's the first of two screen shots that compare konsole's utf8 encoding with iso8859-1. Neither one is right, but with iso8859-1, things line up correctly.
