get a core file, or attach to the process while it's running, or if it's
crashing just after it's spawned, patch it to have a sleep or an infinite loop
right at startup and then after you attach with gdb you change the variable so
it exits the loop and continues. Or maybe just run gvfsd or
gvfs-gphoto2-volume-monitor under gdb and follow the child (I'm not sure who's
launching gvfsd-gphoto2 so not sure if the latter would work).
