Thanks very much for your fast response to this issue Daniel!

I'm away for the Canadian long weekend, can someone please confirm that
Daniel's patches fix the problem in Debian and provide feedback in the
RT ticket? http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=27733

Thanks again, Jack

I've attached two patches to the CPAN RT ticket which address the 
problems with new assertion checks in DBus 1.1.1. In my tests the
second patch has now solved the gnome-system-tools crash. Please
comment on the CPAN ticket whether this solves the problems seen in
latest Debian

Regards,
Dan.
