Is that actually a written library, or auto-generated one? Evan and I
have been independently bitten by bugs in the lib*-glib auto generated
dbus-wrapping libraries from gi before, to point where on cleanup it
would crash your app =/
After that, I started to prefer using dbus API directly, if I can,
instead of going via generated-wrapper libraries.
