What ever happened to portability of code. Not to slag Mac::Glue but even
the name suggests that your going to spend decades re-writing code should
you need to move to a different platform.

I can see it's purpose from some of the other threads here when working with
iTunes or something but in this case, use the standard perl/system
functions.

As someone else pointed out:

$size = `du -sk $dir`;

Would do the trick nicely.
