This is still unsolved ...

... but I found the solution for this one: There is an option for the
Filesys::DiskUsage to round up the file sizes to the next block, which
is DISABLED by default - that's why I got different file sizes.
Unfortunately, this does not explain the difference between the local du
and the one via rexec on a remote machine. Any help appreciated.
Cheers,
