I would much rather see sizes as 1k if POSIXLY_CORRECT is not set; in
other words, if you patch this, I think this is an appropriate place to
make the code conditional on whether bash is emulating posix rather than
hard-coded. People just don't think conveniently in terms of the older
512b block sizes.
