Sending of a lot of data from the client to the server is
also no problem in my code (I tried >1MB and all worked
fine) -- but to receive data as return-value from a method
does not work correctly (I create the return message via
dbus_message_new_method_return(message) and "message" is the
message from the client to the server to call a method).
It seems, that the possible size of an array varies
dependent on the size of previous messages from the client
to the server.

Do you have a hint to debug the problem? On the client I get
a timeout error after some time...
