It is trivial to compile and install du from the coreutils/testing source
package and manually install just the du binary in /usr/local/bin/ so a
"proper" fix for woody is not worth it.

I tried to rewrite the diskusage() function using various other
combinations of commands but it never gave the same disk usage as du... I
gave up!
