The -P option uses a block size of 1024 when it should be using 512 unless the block size is explicitly given. From the man page: -P Output in six columns, with heading `Filesystem N-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on' (with N=512, but N=1024 when the -k option is given). But when you run "df -P" the output says: Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on /dev/hda3 76069416 37835316 38234100 50% / In BSD it correctly uses a 512 block size.
As per the manpage and Info documentation, just use POSIXLY_CORRECT=1 df -P James.
