I haven't gone anywhere near the BDE for at least two years now sorry.
When confirming bugs and looking for official workarounds (if any) you
should look at Quality Central - at community.borland.com. That is
Borland's official Bug Database and the one it looks at when fixing
things.

Hi Richard

I see that you are catching up with your emails at the moment.  I just
wondered if you could confirm that there is a bug in the BDE (all
versions) that causes it to incorrectly report the amount of free disk
space with drives that have over 2GB free space.

We recently encountered this issue on a clients machine and found
reference to a BDE bug caused by Borland using an obsolete API call
(GetDiskSpace instead of GetDiskSpaceEX).  Do you know if this is
supposed to be fixed or if it remains unresolved?  We believe it is
causing a number of clients major problems (now that they have all
upgraded their machines they are running out of drive space).  If it has
not been fixed is there an official (or un official) work around?

Yes I have already searched Google groups etc.  This is how I found
reference to the problem.
