State-Changed-From-To: open-closed
State-Changed-By: jmg
State-Changed-When: Fri Feb 27 23:51:05 PST 1998
State-Changed-Why: 
this is actually normal behavior for ffs filesystems...  they reserve
part of the space for optimization on storing the files...

if you notice:
169969 + 2582044 = 2752013 and not 2991318 as the total says...  it
prevents a user from using all the disk space and then the root user
not being able to do anything about it...
