There's a threading bug in dbus that causes at least Dolphin to crash a lot: it
happened twice for me since upgrading to KDE 4.5.

I reported that crash to the KDE guys [1] and it showed up [2] to be a bug in
DBus, which was fixed in 1.3, but not in 1.2. But as was stated by the KDE guys [3]
there is a patched DBus version in AUR [4] one could use to get this fix when
running Archlinux.

Please apply this patch to dbus-core in Core.


Regards,
Kay
