Sounds complicated and risky. Perhaps a reinstallation of OSX, post
partitioning and Gentoo installation, is best in the end. Thanks for
the input!

That's the way I shrinked my Mac OS X partition. Worked
pretty well, but it is a risk.
The Gentoo LiveCDs has such a parted installed, but it
worked out, that these version could not resize HFS+ any
more. I think the last CD that worked well was a 1.4
LiveCD.
