du: Unexpected duplication

Hello,

I am wondering if this is an undocumented behavior or a bug in du:

$ mkdir dir

$ /usr/bin/du dir dir  dir dir
0    dir

$ /usr/bin/du -l dir dir  dir dir
0    dir
0    dir
0    dir
0    dir

And -l means "count sizes many times if hard linked".

Is that on purpose or a bug?

Thanks,
Sylvestre
