The "busy" result is working fine except if private D-Bus connections
are used, as introduced in patch v0 2/2.

In this case the unique name of the bus differs compared to the bus
used by the monitor, but we still want to consider it as non-busy.

I'll make this more clear in the header-file comment in v1, as
suggested by Tanu.

Cheers,
Mikel
