What, exactly, are stat.st_blocks, statfs.f_bsize?

That's a real bug, I bet their NFS is based on an older LAI version.
There are two different values kept in the server, one for the local
unit and another for the external unit. They're confused in a few
places in the code, particularly in the call that does whatever it is
that "df" wants, I forget the NFS name for this op.

I've fixed this before in that code, it's just a matter of changing
the name of the struct element used in a few places to the correct
one.
