(Receiving Method Calls): Clean up previous change.

100007:e99a24e60b05

registered.

@var{interface} is the interface offered by @var{service}.  It must
provide @var{method}.

@var{handler} is a Lisp function to be called when when a @var{method}
call is is received.  It must accept as arguments the input arguments
of @var{method}.  @var{handler} must return a list, which elements are
used as arguments for the reply message of @var{method}.  This list
can be composed like the input parameters in @ref{Type Conversion}.
If only one Lisp object is returned, and this object is not a consp,
then @var{handler} can return this object directly, instead of of list
of this object.

The default D-Bus timeout when waiting for a message reply is 25
seconds.  This value could be even smaller, depending on the calling
client.  Therefore, @var{handler} shall not last longer than
absolutely necessary.
