Strange SIGPIPE when emitting signal with STRV

[Rob Taylor]

I was testing emitting a signal with a G_TYPE_STRV, by using the
attached patch to glib/example-signal-{emitter,recipient}.c.

With this patch, the emitter gets a sigpipe after trying to send the
message. Here's the relevent section of the trace with DBUS_VERBOSE set:

16337: Message 0x8053378 (4 /org/designfu/TestService/object

16337: Error writing to remote app: Broken pipe


Any ideas what i'm doing wrong and what's causing the pipe to break?

Thanks,
