This is most likely due to multiple threads clobbering the GFileInfo within the
same ThunarFile.  At this point, I guess I would say that the basic design of
sharing the common hash table of ThunarFiles between multiple threads is
flawed.  Worker threads ought to be using their own local copies until they're
finished, and then send the data back to the main thread in a orderly fashion
(probably making use of g_idle_add).  I implemented something of the sort when
I rewrote the playlist code of Audacious a few years ago.

Perhaps haarp is right (comment #80), the code just needs to be rewritten.
