No. This patch breaks ABI for no good reason. Which means that
everything using D-BUS breaks. I've got a patch to fix hal for this

 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3468

but there is no way that I'm (as a maintainer) is going to apply this
before I've got patched D-BUS packages in my distribution. Because, you
know, otherwise I (and others) can't compile the stuff myself and I'm
not going to run everything out of CVS. Not going to happen.

I know D-BUS isn't at 1.0 but can we *please* be a bit more careful in
the future? It's just stupid to break ABI for something as trivial as
this; IMO you should have waited until there were real ABI breakage.
Which I'm sure we will enjoy at some point (and then go to 0.40.x,
0.50.x and so on).
