In that Dired buffer, what are the values of ls-lisp-filesize-d-fmt
and ls-lisp-filesize-f-fmt?  I suspect they are " %2d" and " %2.0f"
respectively.  If that is so, please step through
ls-lisp-insert-directory in a debugger and see why it doesn't account
for file sizes that have more than 2 digits in them.

Did you invoke Dired with some non-default switches, btw, as in
"C-u C-x d"?

Also, does the problem happen in "emacs -Q"?
