The :mod:`statvfs` module defines constants so interpreting the result if
:func:`os.statvfs`, which returns a tuple, can be made without remembering
"magic numbers."  Each of the constants defined in this module is the *index* of
the entry in the tuple returned by :func:`os.statvfs` that contains the
specified information.
