r1026 includes some work to map DBUS specific errors to their Avahi
counterparts. An absent DBUS daemon will now result in an
AVAHI_ERR_NO_DAEMON error which is mapped to the human readable
string "Daemon not running". 

DBUS itself spits out the error "File not found" in that case, so I
guess this is a real improvement.
