I'm having the same problem. It seems that Nautilus now tries to work
around this issue by redirecting you to the "sftp://hostname"; equivalent
of the "~/.gvfs/sftp on hostname" address.

For example:
1) connect to some ssh server on Nautilus
2) type "~/.gvfs/sftp on hostname" on the location bar
3) press Ctrl+L to show the address and notice that the location bar changed to 
"sftp://hostname";

The problem is that this solution creates inconsistencies, as it breaks
your bookmarks in gvfs-unaware programs.

Try this, for example:
1) connect to some ssh server on Nautilus
2) bookmark "~/.gvfs/sftp on hostname" by dragging it to the places sidebar
3) open Firefox, click on File > Save Page As
4) notice that your new bookmark is not on the file browser!!

As a work-around, I created a symbolic link to my "~/.gvfs/sftp on
hostname" folder, and bookmarked *that* instead. But then, while this
works just fine on Firefox, it does not on Nautilus. Instead, when I try
to copy a file to the symbolic link, Nautilus acts as originally
described in this bug report, saying "There is not enough space on the
destination. Try to remove files to make space."
