A random shot in the dark, but sometimes it happens.  Perhaps unmount /usr/obj 
and/or /usr/src and confirm there is no existing files under either?  It’s 
rare, but sometimes happens, that we set things up one way, then change it 
later.  And mounting a filesystem on top of an existing directory tree is a 
great way to hide a whole bunch of files. :-(

I have zero reason to think that’s what’s going on, but short of running a 
bunch of DU’s to figure out where the space is. . .
