I just came across this bug when debugging OOo on SMB shares. Therefore i enhanced the proposed workaround by Timo so that the quirk only gets executed if $HOME is really on a NFS share. Tested it successfully on an old karmic machine and the current lucid workstations. Just see the attachment. Comments highly welcome.

Of course a proper solution would be a NFS mode in GVFS, but as this requires probably requires a lot of changes to GVFS this is no real solution for a backport. Therefore would we could include this script in the gvfs packages as SRU, as it only gets active on NFS setups.
