Hello all.  Thank you for working on this bug, I have been working on it for 
the past few days and this thread clears things up quite a bit.  Since reading 
this, I took a look at some gio code and was thinking one of the functions in 
'giounixmounts.c' might be of some assistance in determining if the volume is 
already mounted?  For instance, in my case I have an fstab entry for '/dev/sdX'
mounted at mount point '/av', then later a bind mount for 'device' /av at mount 
point '/export/av' (for NFS sharing with other machines on the  LAN).  

A list of all mounted volumes can be gotten via 'g_unix_mounts_get () '
in 'giounixmounts.c', which has logic to deal with bind mounts.  Perhaps
check somewhere to insure that the places menu is not populated with
this entry that is about to be mounted if GUnixMountPoint (/av) is equal
to a previously mounted GUnixMountEntry (/av).
