To find out try "/cat /etc/sysconfig/clock | grep UTC/" (you should get 
true or false).

If the machine dual boots Windows I set the BIOS time to local and any 
*nix to use local time (my reasoning would just chew bandwidth). For a 
*nix only I set BIOS time to UTC (-10 local) - and, if it's always up, I 
run ntpd. (refs http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Clock.html and 
http://www.linuxsa.org.au/tips/time.html)

If you try "/hwclock --show/" or "/hwclock --systohc/" do you get the 
(hardware) time or "/select() to /dev/rtc to wait for clock tick timed 
out/"?

If I could solve that, I'd be able to solve this :-)

The EOS 7D is a nice camera - I haven't heard of any Linux support 
problems with it. It's UFRaw supported so you can use that (in GIMP etc) 
to edit your timestamps.
I have an "idea" that the time problem is not related to your segfaults 
or gvfs. gvfs is still very new and (particularly with Gnome) causing 
problems. (eg. xdg-mime using the deprecated gnome-vfs instead of 
gvfs-info).
I would suggest that:- if the box is single boot - set the time to UTC 
in fedora and BIOS (you mentioned you set the camera to UTC); your icon 
problem will/should go away with updates to FUSE - until then turn off 
device icons on the desktop (are you not using solid?).

My apologies if this does not solve your problem.

If it breaks - you get to keep both pieces
