If this is the case, then the patch should be reverted, the original patch of
the bug should be applied instead. Can we also articulate this convention
somewhere, and add that to the glib API docs? So that every D-Bus activatable
application in GNOME calls g_set_prgname() with the bus name. It seems to be
the only way to make it possible to make it future proof without adding more
API.

Yea, but we still wouldn't follow the specification we wrote ourself.
