Returning 0 for some of the fields, esp. f_iosize--which is what's
the cause of bug #56083--is not wrong, I think. According to statvfs(5):

struct statvfs {
    ...
    unsigned long f_iosize;
    ...
};

Returning a -1 for that field is probably not right, even if that's what
libarchive seems to expect. And, POSIX doesn't say anythng about these
implementation-specific fields.
