Is the logic of the if() check accidentally reverted here?

void ForkExecChild::connect(bool delayed /* = false */)

+    if (delayed) {
+        m_conn = GDBusCXX::DBusConnectionPtr(dbus_get_bus_connection(address,
+                                                                     
&dbusError));
+    } else {
+        m_conn = 
GDBusCXX::DBusConnectionPtr(dbus_get_bus_connection_delayed(address,
+                                                                             
&dbusError));
