Build changes for 0.61

[Daniel P. Berrange]

For the session.conf we should let the kernel auto-allocate us a port to
listen on, so that multiple concurrent user sessions can run. We don't need
to know the port ahead of time, since its exposed to clients via the 
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS environment variable anyway.

Regards,
Dan.
