[Bug 903422] Re: Mount / Provide access to Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich, ICS) MTP devices

[futtta]

still on 11.10,  can't test if fix works (but looking forward to this in
a couple of days time)

for the record; i'm on a samsung galaxy sII with official samsung ICS
ROM and although I do have a external sd-card, I don't have the option
to mount it as USB mass storage, only choices are between MTP and PTP.
