bug#10016: ls -lk is wrong

[Alan Curry]

I mentioned this already in the bug#9939 thread, but nobody replied and it's
really a separate issue so here's an independent report.

This behavior:

$ ls -l /bin/ls
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 107124 Feb  8  2011 /bin/ls
$ ls -lk /bin/ls
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 105 Feb  8  2011 /bin/ls

is awful. -k should not have any effect on the ls -l field that reports
st_size. It is only supposed to possibly affect the reporting of st_blocks
by -s and the "total" line at the start of a full directory listing.

I won't make any claims about what --block-size should do, but -k comes from
BSD and it should act like BSD.
