We had a similar issue some time ago on Mandriva Linux when people where
using csh with dbus : our way of starting dbus-launch (using a shell
script) was using --auto-syntax, so csh syntax was used when people were
using csh, but the script itself was always executed by (ba)sh, so we
had to use --sh-syntax for every case.
