That's an old problem, but yesterday I was working with 1.4G UFS2-slice reported by `df` to have 400kb of free space. Alternative calculations (e.g. writing a random file until kernel says no inode's free) give a result of more that 100M (!) unused. Thats about 7% of the whole size! So whats wrong with `df`?
