Joe Marcus Clarke 1c219c3330 Add dbus, Freedesktop.org's Desktop Bus. D-BUS is a message passing framework
for informing applications about system events such as new hardware being
added, new users logging into an IM application, new software installed,
etc.

D-BUS supplies both a system daemon (for events such as "new hardware device
added" or "printer queue changed") and a per-user-login-session daemon (for
general IPC needs among user applications). Also, the message bus is built on
top of a general one-to-one message passing framework, which can be used by
any two apps to communicate directly (without going through the message bus
daemon).
