I can't do it, because I have since changed my configuration --- using NFS. But some "adventurous" of you could test if upgrading gvfs can help.
There is a PPA here, http://www.webupd8.org/2013/01/upgrade-to-gvfs- with-mtp-support-in.html - it's oriented to other features, but if I understand correctly it will upgrade gvfs to the same one used in the last Fedora. Nevertheless, I can't understand why this is not "critical" --- it'a a show-stopper for a lot of applications and, in the way it fails, a kind of DOS --- you will have a lot of processes in "D" state, unkillable and zombies all around. Ah, by the way, you can use cifs without uninstalling gvfs, I think.
