Did the X transport for DBUS ever get written? It seems that we'd always
want it enabled for the session bus, so the server could use just that
(without needing a babysitter).
BTW, running configure with no arguments results in:
$ dbus-launch
Failed to start message bus: Failed to read directory
"/usr/local/etc/dbus-1/NONE/lib/dbus-1.0/services": No such file or
directory
Also, the man page suggests:
eval `dbus-launch --exit-with-session`
but that command never returns (not closing stdout?)
