	stat --version 2>/dev/null | grep -q 'GNU'
	GNUSTAT=$?
	if [ "$GNUSTAT" -ne 0 ]; then
		# Assume BSD stat if we can't detect as GNU stat
		STATSZ="stat -f %Uz"
	else
		STATSZ="stat -c %s"
	fi

but with the rust coreutils

# stat --version 2>/dev/null
stat 0.0.30

which leas to use %Uz which isn't working
