Nice diagnosis.  This looks fixed to me in the 2.6.3-rc2 UML.  I fixed
a bug with totalram_pages being duplicate (and leaving the generic totalram
at zero).  However, I didn't do anything with totalswap.

Now, /proc/meminfo shows
	SwapTotal:     1049592 kB
	SwapFree:      1049592 kB

and your little demo shows

	info.mem_unit  = 1
	info.totalram  = 128688128
	info.totalswap = 1074782208
