FWIW, I've since added version numbers to our D-Bus bus names for this
very reason.  Had I thought of it earlier, the address book service in
2.30 would have been named:

   org.gnome.evolution.dataserver.Addressbook0

and in 2.32 named

   org.gnome.evolution.dataserver.Addressbook1

to account for the API break that made them incompatible.  Then you
would have seen a much more informative error message from D-Bus.

Hopefully these compatibility problems will be a thing of past for 3.0
and beyond.
