However, for a sparse file this continues to return same sizes for
stat size and real size. This is an Apple UFS partition.


Anyway, the answer is that (a) stat() won't return the information you
want,

Sorry for the stat distraction, I only tried it on this linux system before making the suggestion: $ stat sparse (output snipped) Size: 3221225472 Blocks: 8

But I see this morning that when I mount the same file system over NFS, on my mac: $ stat -s sparse (output snipped) st_size=3221225472 st_blocks=6291456

Oh well.
