By signal handler, I had meant the function called when you receive a signal 
from D-Bus.

Not Unix signals. You're definitely not allowed to use libdbus-1 from a Unix 
signal handler. There's a very, very small list of system calls that you're 
allowed to do from a signal handler.

Usually, the only operation you can have is to write to a pipe.
