integrate with my own mainloop

[Tom Flynn]

just took a look at gnome-volume-manager...unfortunately, they call
dbus_connection_setup_with_g_main() like lshal.c does (g-v-m uses gtk which
uses glib if i understand correctly). I have a command-line app and I wish
to be able to run outside of X and with the minimum number of libraries
possible.

Hal/DBus looks to be perfect for what I want, if only I can figure out how
to integrate it with my own mainloop.

any ideas?
