Subject: bug#49381: v.8.32 – du(1) | Calculating the total size of files | One file covered instead of all

*OS:* Fedora; Tested in Bash v.5.1.

Hello. Task: Printing total size of files *alone*.
To reproduce:

$ stat -c '%i %h %s %n %F' k l
4198568 2 34 k regular file
4198568 2 34 l regular file

$ find . -type f
./k
./l

Those  'du' commands cover only one file instead of all files.

$ find . -type f -exec du -acb {} +
34 ./k
34 total

$ find . -type f -print0 | du --files0-from=- -cb
34 ./k
34 total

Isn't rather *68* expected?
