 reports as free which is 100% accurate, actually.

 Would perhaps be interesting to see the output of `checkfs -c /boot`, I
 seem to recall some instances in the past where a freshly built image had
 issues like this for some reason, though I don't recall the cause.

 {{{
 ~/Desktop> checkfs -c /boot
         102564 nodes checked,
         0 blocks not allocated,
         0 blocks already set,
         2096069 blocks could be freed

         files           88820
         directories     13510
         attributes      123
         attr. dirs      96
         indices         15

         direct block runs               100894 (2.71 GiB)
         indirect block runs             176 (in 5 array blocks, 10.19 MiB)
         double indirect block runs      0 (in 0 array blocks, 0 bytes)
 }}}
