I've looked at your actual results this time :-)
The problem appears to be that your filesystem (BTW, which type is it?)
requires zero blocks for files like a/b/c that are small enough.
I think I've fixed the test script for next time by requiring
that the blocksize and block-count match for files as well as for
directories. So on your system, the new du/basic test would be skipped.
But maybe I can do better:
Would you please find out how big a file has to be in order to get a
non-zero block count? Then I'll change the test so that the files
it uses are at least that big.
Thanks,
Jim
