Not a bug in nautilus. The problem exists somewhere else.
Thanks to a comment upstream, I tracked the problem down to the file
/proc/kcore. This file alone is reported as 128TB, even by the 'ls'
command.
According to:

The size of this file should be
Not even a kernel bug. According to:
http://www.novell.com/support/viewContent.do?externalId=7004153

PS
I thought 129GB seemed excessive, as I only recently set up this system.
As it turns out, the size of the volume contents is NOT supposed to be

system monitor, I'm only using 26.5GiB, which sounds about right.
