Timo's workaround is just what I was looking for. I wouldn't use /tmp/.gvfs-$USER though since that's a predictable location. On a machine where lots of people log in to it someone could maliciously pre-create such directories for other users resulting in at best denial of service and at worst them being able to access other people's files. I'd use mktemp

rmdir ~/.gvfs 2>/dev/null || rm ~/.gvfs
ln -s "$(mktemp -d)" ~/.gvfs
