 Upon re-installing "gvfs", a subsequent attempt to build
 "gobject-introspection" once again fails.  After again removing "gvfs",
 building "gobject-introspection" again succeeds.

 Likewise on the amd64-8.0_BETA system:  With "gvfs" still installed,
 building "gobject-introspection" fails.  After removing "gvfs", building
 "gobject-introspection" succeeds.

 "gobject-introspection" once again fails.  After again removing "gvfs",

 So, what about "gvfs" interferes with "gobject-introspection"--not just
 running the programs it provides, but even trying to build it in the first
 place.
