In 12.10 to 14.04, I was using several ntfs partitions which got auto-mounted by fstab entries, using "...uid=1000,gid=1000,x-gvfs-show,x-gvfs-name=something". 
With a new PC I installed 14.04.2 64bit, and use ext4 for these shared disks.
Unfortunately, doing so had me hit by this bug. Since auto-mounting is necessary, I tried to find a solution which took me to this thread.
Well, I tried to use the updated util-linux from the above mentioned ppa by Ivan Larionov.
The fstab entries done by the gnome-disk-utility v 3.10.0 which comes with 14.04.2 are still causing problems at boot.
After some try and error I found that the entry in fstab needs to be "...comment=x-gvfs-show..." as opposed to "...x-gvfs-show..." entered by the gnome-disk-utility when "Show in user interface" is checked.

Title:
  util-linux needs updating to 2.24.2

Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in util-linux source package in Raring:
  Won't Fix
Status in util-linux package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Applications in the default desktop - specifically gnome-disk-utility
  - depend on behaviour only introduced in util-linux 2.21+.
  Specifically if you select "Show in user interface" in mount options,
  it adds the mount option "x-gvfs-show" to the mount options in
  /etc/fstab. Mounting of this mount point then fails because the option
  is unrecognised.
