>Description:
1) Manpage find(1) -ls description says "size in 512-byte blocks",
where it should have "number of 512-byte file system blocks used".
2) It says "ls -dgils." where it should say "ls -dgils, when the
environment has BLOCKSIZE=512".
3) It says "identical" where it should say
"identical (excepting whitespace)".
>How-To-Repeat:
$ sh -c 'BLOCKSIZE=k ls -dgils /boot/kernel/kernel'
