I just noticed that we don't have the latest libgpod included in F-13.
I'm correcting that now, which might help.  The changes from 0.7.91 to
0.7.93 include:

* various bug fixes in HAL/udev iPhone callout which would make it
  fail to dump SysInfoExtended more often than not.

That looks a lot like the cause of the problem you're having.  I just
submitted the package for updates-testing, it'll show up there in the
next push (a day or so at most).  If you want to test it sooner (and
provide feedback, good or bad), see:

Yeah, I would think they'd show up in the setroubleshoot tray icon.
It should also be logged to the audit log (/var/log/audit/audit.log).
That was more of a longshot guess.  I think now that updating to the
latest libgpod is more likely to help.
