Indeed it does.  So this issue seems to affect OS X only.

If someone here will be kind enough to verify the bug in OS X I'll post
the bug report.

Are we certain that this is abnormal behavior? On OS X, /Volumes/util/ is
still on the SAME 'DRIVE' as other /Volumes/places/. Sure they show up as
different disks, but they aren't really. On Windows, Drive C: and Drive
<any other letter>: really are different physical devices (unless they are
network shares mapped to a drive letter).

That's a good thought. In the case I'd first tested, "util" is indeed a partition rather than a separate physical device.

While not a different physical drive, "util" is a separate volume and has its own separate disk space, so I feel it should still be recognized and have its disk space returned when the defaultFolder is set to it.

But in the interest of sleuthing this to completion I also mounted one of my FireWire drives, and got the same result.

This has now been logged to BZ for your voting pleasure:
