You're right, -B1 gives a count which is visually more consistent with
the "human-readable" total:

basil ben # du -sB1 ~zygoat/Maildir
289280 /home/zygoat/Maildir
basil ben # du -sb ~zygoat/Maildir
103316 /home/zygoat/Maildir
basil ben # du -sh ~zygoat/Maildir
283K /home/zygoat/Maildir

However, neither -B1 nor --apparent-size are mentioned in my man page at
all. I had no idea such options existed. Weird.

Moreover, what is the correct count? 289280 bytes? What is the 103316
value in the above, then?

-b
