I've appended an updated source for dbus-launch.c, with some MAX_PATH
related fixes, some additional error printing and stuff to distinguish
release/debug compilations.

Are there any other issues with this code beside Tor's unicode
suggestions ? Otherwise I would check this file in.

As I'm not very experienced with the unicode stuff, I have added this
conversations as TODO item. Anyone feel free to implement the missing
unicode conversation stuff.
