        * hald/hald_dbus.c (hald_exec_method_do_invocation)
        (hald_exec_method_enqueue, hald_exec_method_process_queue)
        (hald_exec_method_cb, hald_exec_method): To avoid a race of
        several processes invoking methods at the same time we now
        maintain a queue of method calls per-device. One very real example
        of this is gnome-mount when setting up crypto devices; after
        Crypto.Setup() gnome-mount waits for the cleartext block device
        and attempts to mount it; meanwhile g-v-m sees the cleartext block
        device too and attempts to mount too. Since mounting is a
        relatively slow operation both methods are executed at the same
        time and we end up with two mounts. This patch fixes this problem.
