On -CURRENT, we have statvfs, but there are parts of the GNOME code that
don't use it right.  This is why you were seeing weird values in
nautilus previously.  Places where statvfs is used need to be modified
to use the f_frsize member for block size, and f_bavail for available
blocks.

In this case, you also need to make sure that the value given to you
from libgtop2 is using f_blocks and f_bfree.  Then, multiply those
values by whatever you get for f_frsize.
