Multiple swap partitions listed wrong

Hi. I have Linux 2.2.8, and multiple swap partitions, 1 on each of 2 drives.
The swap partitions are different sizes, but appear to be the same size, as
indicated by swapon -s, and /proc/swaps, as shown below.

Please let me know if I have something wrong on my end (I've checked everything
I could think of), or if this is a bug.
