There's no simple explanation here. It looks like some kind of strange 
problem -- code inspection suggests that a failure of this assert is 
extremely unlikely.

This assert means that op->context->cancellation was NULL.

But this function just created op->context with a call to 
gnome_vfs_context_new, which sets cancellation to the result of 
gnome_vfs_cancellation_new. I can't see how you'd end up with a NULL.
