But that doesn't really work does it since the configure script is
looking for dbus-glib => 0.75 whereas the version in Fedora 9 is 0.74.
Now the thing is that I installed version 0.76 of dbus-glib manually
into /usr/local, I pointed the DBUS_LIBS and DBUS_CFLAGS variables to
the appropriate areas and that got the configure script happy, but it
seems like the Makefile doesn't get it.

Am I just doing this compile really wrong or something?
