I don't know either, but one use of the "custom part" functionality is to
create parts that NTK doesn't have built-in support for. See:
http://www.unna.org/unna/apple/documentation/developer/Articles/BitParts.rtf
http://www.kallisys.com/files/newton/Bowels/Dictionary_Parts.txt
Besides those, there's also "ptch" for system updates, and that's all I
know of.
