I don't see how that can work in general, even if we make the changes
suggested, since in general directory sizes won't be the same on
different machines.  Directory sizes are not under direct user program
control.  They might even be zero (and are, on some platforms, if
memory serves).

Perhaps if we changed 'du' to ignore directory sizes; but this is
sounding more and more like a special case just for you.
