Good point /me checks the hal config backend ... nope should not be a problem.

Hmm, unless you really strongly object I'm going to just stick with the
dbus_core_... naming, I don't see that becoming a problem in the future.

dbus_core_... is still defined in libconfig.la now, and thus only
available in hw/xfree86/* as libconfig.la is not linked in to any
other binaries using dix.
