Newbie trying to compile an example program

I got the example program from
http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-tutorial.html (seen below), added
an #include <dbus/dbus-glib.h> and tried to compile. I got "undefined
symbol" on DBUS_GERROR_REMOTE_EXCEPTION but worked around that. But now
I get the following errors while linking. I'm using Fedora 5 and the
dbus from its repository (dbus-0.33-3.fc4.1). I have the devel packages
installed too, both for it and for glib.
gcc -ldbus-1 -ldbus-glib-1 -lglib-2.0 -I/usr/include/dbus-1.0
-I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include -I/usr/include/glib-2.0
-I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -o dbustest dbustest.c
dbustest.c: In function 'main':
dbustest.c:35: warning: implicit declaration of function 'dbus_g_proxy_call'
dbustest.c:41: warning: implicit declaration of function

/tmp/cccwlQMO.o(.text+0xe5):dbustest.c: undefined reference to

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
I'm doing something stupid, I'm sure. Question is, what?
