Moving the (start of the) root partition

I have dual boot with windows, the windows C: partition being before my / partition, I don't have a separate /boot partition. I need to increase the size of the windows partition, so therefore I need to shrink and move the / partition right. When I set this up in gparted, I'm warned that changing the start of the partition that contains /boot may cause the system not being able to boot. So I would like to ask the wise people here - is it a real concern or is gparted playing it too safe? If it is a real concern, what steps do I have to make to have a working system at the end?
