Ouch.  Wasn't that the Samba version Fred Flintstone used at work?

What does `ls -s' return?  The return value in st_blocks is always a
multiple of 1K(*), which in turn is computed from the "AllocationSize"
value returned by the NtQueryInformationFile function.  Compare that
with `ls -s' on the HP machine.  I wouldn't be surprised if that's a bug
in that Samba version.
