Hi,
  The workaround in (10) didn't work for me.

The other observation is that

xdg-open /

triggers the same problem.

(Which makes me wonder if it's related to the breakage in bug 670128)

But xdg-open is calling gvfs-open, and gvfs-open /    triggers the same
I can see that gvfs-open has read  
/usr/share/applications/exo-file-manager.desktop and that tells it to
run

exo-open --launch FileManager filename

(that's from exo-utils, part of xfce)

If I run exo-preferred-applications I can see that File Manager is set
to evince (!); if I flick that to Nautilus it opens.

(Although leaves a straggling window saying it's opening it even though
it did).

Has everyone else who has this problem also got exo-utils installed?
I would have thought that we'd want xfce stuff to co-exist with a gnome desktop 
without getting in eachothers way.
