Right. There is an hardcoded limit of 9 characters per file size :(

I guess it is time to finally import the file size printing routines
 from coreutils/gnulib. I've been delaying this for some time now...

I created a file exactly 2000111222 bytes large (cca 2GB)
With default listing mode, it is shown as "1907M" (column is 7 bytes wide)

I set the listing mode to "user defined" and specified wider size 
column by:

half type,name,|,size:14,|,perm

However, the file size is shown as "1953234K", even if the 14 chars 
wide column allow specifying it with single byte precision, like 
"2000111222".
