Right. We've also now repaired the ABI/API in D-BUS HEAD (by adding back
dbus_connection_disconnect that calls dbus_connection_close) so it
should work without this patch for the time being. Sorry for the
interruption.

I'm hoping all ABI/API breakage needed for D-BUS 1.0 can happen in a
branch so GNOME 2.11/GNOME 2.12 can depend on D-BUS HEAD without this
sort of breakage. There most probably will be breakage before before
D-BUS 1.0 but I'm really hoping we can deal with all of it at once.

HTH,
