proxy.MethodCall(..., reply_handler=on_reply, error_handler=on_error)

where the reply_handler is a function or method with the same number of
parameters that the MethodCall returns and the error_handler is a
function or method which takes an exception as a parameter.  It is all
in the tutorial at http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-tutorial.html.
