Thanks for the pointer.  Is it conceivable to separate the behaviors
of --summarize and of --max-depth=0?  After all, I'm expecting some
things to be stripped out with --max-depth=0, but certainly not with
--summarize (based on the man). This would require to store the size
of every dev,ino pair, though.
