Title:
  stat() fails with EPERM on ~/.gvfs

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  While it is known that root can not access the contents of the .gvfs
  directory by design, stat() on the directory itself also fails with
  EPERM despite the fact that root has read permission on the parent
  directory.  stat() on the mount point needs to succeed and should
  probably return a mode indicating no access is allowed.  Simply
  determining that the directory IS a mount point and that you do not
  have access to its contents requires the use of stat.
