Um, in what way is getting the orbit name server through
resolve_initial_references a gnome specific thing?

gnome_name_service_get is a way to get around the fact that you can't use
resolve_initial_references on the orbit name server. If orbit could get
its own name server, I wouldn't see a need for gnome_name_service_get.
