Oh.
The size of a directory file has very little to do with what is actuall in the directory.
That type of file just grows in size. If you remove some files - it stays the same size.
So as an explanation - how about at one time the 1024 size directory had more files than it does now? When copied to another box it required 512 bytes for the new directory.

lfc_getcwd
LFC_GETCWD(3) LFC Library Functions LFC_GETCWD(3)
NAME
lfc_getcwd - get LFC current directory used by the name server
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
#include "lfc_api.h"
char *lfc_getcwd (char *buf, int size)
DESCRIPTION
lfc_getcwd gets the LFC current directory used by the name server. This current working directory is stored in a thread-safe variable in
the client.
If buf is not NULL, the current directory name will be stored there.
If buf is NULL, lfc_getcwd allocates a buffer of size bytes using malloc.
size must be at least the length of the directory name to be returned plus one byte.
RETURN VALUE
This routine returns buf if the operation was successful or NULL if the operation failed. In the latter case, serrno is set appropriately.
ERRORS
ENOENT The current directory has not been set yet or does not exist anymore.
ENOMEM buf is a NULL pointer and memory could not be allocated.
EINVAL size is less than or equal to zero.
ERANGE size is greater than 0 and less than size of current directory name plus 1.
SENOSHOST Host unknown.
SENOSSERV Service unknown.
SECOMERR Communication error.
ENSNACT Name server is not running or is being shutdown.
