Yes. I performed a dist-upgrade while it was still on etch before I
altered sources.list to lenny.

I did some searches when I was in the middle of trying to get the
upgrade to work. Other people who have experienced the problem with df
were advised to check their /proc. Everything relevant to df in my
/proc seemed to be ok, so I wondered if maybe coreutils switched from
parsing files in /proc to syscalls in the upgrade? That's just a shot
in the dark, though.
