That's right, Filesys-Statvfs_Statfs_Df-0.78 is the new wrinkle in 
4.53.7.  I installed this by hand (perl Makefile.PL, make, make test, etc).
However it compiled and passed its tests without problems, giving
correct block numbers.

I do notice that there is a version  0.79, released on April 19.
Downloading now, will install and test.
