Public bug reported:

When running Precise, I used the ~/.gvfs directory to access a file or
directory on a windows share from applications (primarily Thunderbird)
that didn't support network browsing.  Now, with Quantal, although the
mounted directory appears in /run/user/<username>/gvfs, it isn't
browsable, either from a file browser (I tried thunar and dolphin) or
from the Thunderbird file browser window.  When I mount the C drive and
try to browse it, I get a message in Thunar that pagefile.sys is not
available.  When I mount a subdirectory under C and try to browse it,
nothing happens.

Also, when I try to browse the share, Thunar and Thunderbird go into
zombie state.

I can browse the share in Thunar using smb:// but that doesn't work from
Thunderbird file browser.

Attached is a file showing the readout in kernel log when I try to
browse the share in the gvfs directory.
