It seems to run from '/usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd'. 

I don't know whether he tried, simply, "export GVFS_DISABLE_FUSE=1" or
not (and stopped and restarted the daemon by one of the usual methods);
I understood what might consult the value of GVFS_DISABLE_FUSE is the
gvfsd daemon itself.

 gvfsd-fuse is normally started by gvfsd(1). In this case, the mount
 point is $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/gvfs or $HOME/.gvfs.
