From the D-Bus specification
<http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#message-protocol-names>,
this is incorrect behaviour. Error names follow the same rules as
interfaces; so, they can't contain hyphens, but should be able to
contain underscores.
I think I reviewed this patch. Whoops!
