Hi,
So my last patch to fix the pending call leak wasn't quite right.
> When a DBusPendingCall is created in dbus_connection_send_with_reply(),

> connection, effectively passing the ownership on.
The initial ref *is* released, it turns out, by the unref following
stealing the reply in dbus_connection_send_with_reply_and_block().
There is an unmatched ref, though, in
_dbus_connection_block_pending_call(). This patch reverts the unref
from my original patch and adds unrefs at all of the exit points from
this function.
Thanks,
Joe
