Long ago in the distant past some Unixes would report 512 byte block
sizes in df and some would report 1k blocks and everyone got mighty
confused and upset; then everyone started reporting 1k consistently and
you could look at the output of df and immediately see how much disc you
had free without having to multiply by 2 (sometimes).
