I had the same problem.  After I removed some obsolete files from
/etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders, the 'Applications' menu looked much
better.

I did "dpkg -S /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders/*":

libgnomevfs2-common: /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders/applications-all-users.vfolder-info
dpkg: /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders/applications.vfolder-info not found.
libgnomevfs2-common: /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders/applications.vfolder-info-default
libgnomevfs2-common: /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders/favorites.vfolder-info
libgnomevfs2-common: /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders/preferences-all-users.vfolder-info
dpkg: /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders/preferences.vfolder-info not found.
dpkg: /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders/programs.vfolder-info not found.
libgnomevfs2-common: /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders/server-settings.vfolder-info
libgnomevfs2-common: /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders/start-here.vfolder-info
libgnomevfs2-common: /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders/system-settings.vfolder-info

and then removed the unknown files.
