It seems to me, after looking at this a bit, that the same dbus message
signature should map to a different marshaller for method calls versus
signal callbacks, because method calls should (by default) return a
boolean and take a GError as a final parameter, which are not
represented in the message signature.  Additionally, method calls can
have OUT parameters.  

So I'm not sure that much more code can be shared between the two cases.
Or am I missing something?
