Possible bug in sys/stat.h doc

The stat.h documentation in:
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/basedefs/sys/stat.h.html

mentions the struct stat member st_blocks, but does not mention the
blocksize that is used to count blocks in st_blocks.

Is this intentional? Without a requirement for the underlying blocksize
or a way to find the blocksize, the field st_blocks seems to be rather
useless.

Am I missing something?
