Hm, I'm sending all the time the same data. But I've maybe to create
more checks before I send to detect such situations. I'll maybe also try
your patches.

Yes, I'm using threads. Debugging works really good for me. I could
even start both, server and client, in debug (with Anjuta IDE) and then
follow exact the connection trough Dbus-C++ and DBus (with installed
sources and dbg packages in Ubuntu) itself. So I see no problems.
