Bill,

I can reproduce your case. The Oracle process does read /proc/meminfo but 
PHYSICAL_MEMORY_BYTES seems to be reporting the second line MemFree instead of 
the first line MemTotal. And when it reports MemFree, it drops the k in "kB".

I'm sure it's a bug. The problem does not exist in 10.2.0.4.
