Well, the problem call is from gnome-vfs or an application using gnome-vfs?
Now I get even more confused??

However, 

# strings /usr/libexec/gweather-applet-2 | grep vfs
gnome_vfs_async_read
gnome_vfs_async_close
gnome_vfs_async_open
libgnomevfs-2.so.0
gnome_vfs_result_to_string

Can gweather still be the bandit?
