Well, I quasi-fixed this, but thunar-vfs itself disallows linking '/' to anything, and that's causing a new crash. Going to see if Benny has a reason for this. If he 'fixes' thunar-vfs to allow such a link, this will be fixed; otherwise I'll have to add a workaround to refuse to try to link '/' anywhere.
I just put the workaround in for now; Benny doesn't seem to think it's worth changing. At least it won't crash for RC2.
