Public bug reported:

Trying to delete files with nautilus from a vfat partition "fails".
Well, the file can be deleted OK, but it seems gvfs can't send the file
to the trashcan, so only permanent delete is available. Furthermore, the
name of the file appears in little boxes, similar to viewing a chinese
site using Latin-1 encoding (will attach screenshot).

Distro: Hardy up to date (17-february 2008)

Steps to reproduce: Copy a file to an vfat partition. Select it and delete 
using nautilus. A message error will appear: 
  "Can't move file to trashcan. Do you want to delete it inmediately?"
  "File <<little-boxes>>cannot be moved to trashcan"

Versions:
Nautilus 1:2.21.91-0ubuntu2
gvfs 0.1.7-0ubuntu4

/etc/fstab for the vfat partition:
UUID=9445-A956  /fat32          vfat    defaults,utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
