I just realized that I cannot fully test by using palimpsest as I do have broken partition table myself. However /lib/udev/udisks-part-id does report incorrectly partition type for scsi_debug device. Thus I think I reproduced it correctly. Here is how.

1. Create msdos partition table
2. Use sfdisk /dev/sdb < part.lst . Note that it will complain about creation of "empty" partition but still will do.
3. /lib/udev/udisks-part-id /dev/sdb5 will report "mbr" instead of anything else
